Therapists » Licensed Professional Counselor
I help adults and children overcome difficulties with Depression, Anxiety, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, School Underachievement, Relationship Problems, Substance Abuse and a Variety of Other Life Difficulties. I custom tailor my interpersonal style and therapeutic strategies to match a client's age, personality and motivation for change. This individualized approach creates an environment in which the client feels deeply understood and valued. The spirit of trust and collaboration that results is one of the keys to motivating those I serve and improving their treatment outcome. I use a therapeutic approach called Motivational Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. It was created by my mentor Bernard Ivin. It is a combination of CBT and other approaches. The goal is to teach clients to become their own therapist, using a variety of "life skills" to manage their emotions and behaviors. I am truly committed to providing inspiring those I serve to live a life that is in line with their goals, hopes and dreams. I believe that everyone has the capacity for change and the human spirit is strong and resilient. I am passionate about helping my clients progress successfully in their journey through life.
