Whether it's your first time in therapy or your 10th, I have 28 years of experience working with people just like you to help settle your mind and body & get your life back! I work with individuals and adults and come from a strength perspective. I believe that every person I have worked with have strengths yet to be discovered. I offer a solution focused approach which lends itself to short term work. I see therapy as a collaborative process, where client and therapist come together to find solutions. Specializing in trauma and anxiety, I provide clients with useful tools in the first 3 sessions to provide symptom relief.
My clients are able to get to the problem and tackle it. Whether it is a recent problem or life long you've found the right therapist. I specialized in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, depression, family relationships, stress management, NICU support and substance abuse. I also treat OCD, BiPolar, and other mental disorders.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. The client brings the content and experience of their problem and the therapist comes to help treat the client and navigate the clients journey with their empathy, expertise and guidance. Let me help you towards the path of your recovery today. I also offer sliding scale fees based on income to help clients.
