About
I have had the opportunity to work in the medical profession prior to my working as a therpaist. I worked as a nurse in many disciplines and particularly psychiatry, learning how to treat mental health issues at the extreme of the mental health disorders. I am now working as an independent therpist and have worked primarily in the field of chemical dependency treatment and am presently treating clients in my private practice with diagnoses of chemical dependency, anxiety, depression, and other issues with mental health. I prefer to work collaratively with clients where we, together develop a plan of care for the client's goals. I approach therapy as a collaboration with the client to support them meeting the goals that they set for themselves in their seeking therapy. I offer the client feedback in the decisions they make as we work to understand the issues they are having in their approach to seeking emotional wel-being and mental health I have been practicing in the medical profession for more than 35 years and the experiences I had as registered nurse prepared me for learning to understand important skills I can have in my interaction with patient is "listening" to the patients needs. I apply that same clinical approach in my private practice, working to understand what my client needs
