Modern, efficient, individualized approach. Expertise in treating a variety of mental health conditions. Dedicated, reliable staff.
Most of my clients have issues dealing with relationships. It's often a boss, family member or a significant other. Relationships can cause us stress and can result in symptoms such as anxiety and depression. I work closely with my clients to assist them in finding techniques to better communicate with others. Communication is key to solving problems of any type. Insight building as to why clients find themselves in these relationships over and over are the focus in treatment.
I work mostly with adults and specialize with anxiety disorders. Many people live with anxiety symptoms daily and never receive help. Most believe it's part of their personality and are afraid to change. Some people are so symptomatic i.e panic attacks, excessive worrying, I work with these clients successfully.
Taking the initial steps to begin psychotherapy can be intimidating but the process of therapy has the potential to transform your life. Survival skills that may have helped us in the past may have become an obstacle to thriving in the present. This may contribute to feeling stuck in painful relationships, unrewarding jobs and struggling with depression and anxiety. I treat a wide range of concerns and problems including relationship and family of origin issues. My specialties include relational trauma grief and loss, anxiety and depression, LGBT issues, adult adoptees, domestic violence. Additionally, I have experience and enjoy working with artists.
In my work as a psychotherapist, I believe in a collaborative approach and provide a non-judgmental and safe setting. People can explore their feelings and concerns in depth and draw on their inner strength to effect positive change in their lives.
Barriers can get in the way of personal growth, and it can be challenging to identify, understand and move past them. Often, these obstacles are subtle and connected to ingrained patterns that appear in relationships and behaviors. My goal as a therapist is to help people understand themselves better and to proactively develop skills and coping strategies to help them lead their ideal life.
My therapeutic approach is non-judgmental, strengths-based, person-centered, collaborative and goal focused. As an LCSW, I have worked for 10 years with a wide variety of individuals with a diverse array of life circumstances and issues. I believe that everyone has the potential to live a fulfilling life, and that I can help you identify and move past the barriers that stand in your way.
My work and approach is to help guide my clients in understanding their difficulties in life so that they may feel empowered to make positive and long lasting changes for the future. I am a licensed mental health counselor with clinical experience treating a wide variety of mental health issues.
