Have you been feeling stressed, overwhelmed, sad or worried? You are not alone; I am here to help. Making that phone call and choosing a therapist can be challenging but it is the first step towards improving your current situation and the quality of your life. Within a safe, non-judgmental and caring environment, we will explore ways to embrace change and find the fulfillment and life balance you long for. We will build on your strengths and empower you to make the choices and changes that make sense to you.
With a theoretical foundation in humanistic person-centered therapy, I believe each person is unique and has the strength within to heal. My specialties are in treating depression, anxiety, stress, abuse and trauma and in assisting with life transitions such as divorce and loss, interpersonal communication, parenting issues, and relationship concerns.
The core of my practice is an integrative approach that embraces the connection between the mind, body and spirit. This approach uses evidence-based treatment methods, such as cognitive behavioral, EMDR, mindfulness and solution focused therapy. I will adapt these methods to fit your unique needs and work with you within your particular situation.
