Taking the first step towards seeking counseling can be a little anxiety producing and can take courage. With compassion, non-judgment, and patience, my focus is to support you as you work towards achieving your personal therapy goals. Our therapy process is aimed at the creation of a strong therapeutic counselor-client alliance which will help you express your thoughts/emotions openly. My areas of specialty include: anxiety, depression, OCD, anger management, parenting effectiveness, grief/loss, relationship issues, divorce/separation, self-esteem, women's issues, stress management, adolescent issues, assertiveness, and trauma. During the therapeutic process you will have the opportunity to comfortably express feelings, identify goals, explore patterns of thinking that may be creating emotional difficulties and hindering personal wellness, and develop healthy ways of thinking and being. You will gain coping skills to help address future problems in adaptive and resilient ways. As a psychotherapist, my professional/personal goal is to provide a warm, comfortable, caring environment where individuals/families can clarify problems, develop insight, learn/practice new skills, and feel empowered to overcome challenges, and obtain/maintain overall emotional wellness/resiliency. Please contact me to discuss your personal wellness goals.
