When we encounter stress, low self-esteem, worry about meeting others’ expectations, experience disappointment in life, and face trauma, our self-knowledge becomes buried. Do you feel like you have lost your true self? Discovering yourself can be accomplished with counseling. This discovery can lead to creating your best life. I counsel from the assumption that each client knows within themselves what it is they need and want. Helping people cope with the challenges and changes that life brings by working together to identify and achieve goals is essential. My job is to listen to you, and in turn help you to listen to yourself. My person-centered style empowers your self-discovery, self-acceptance, and a provides a means toward healing and positive growth. The goal is to best suit your needs by using a variety of techniques. In all aspects of my counseling, I teach mindfulness as a way of life, helping my clients pay attention to their own experiences, emotions, and desires. My expertise is in treating children, teens, adults, families, and couples using child-centered play therapy for children and the Gottman Method Couples Therapy. I provide support for people managing relationship difficulties, child behavior challenges, explorations of personality, spiritual issues, bipolar disorder, OCD, depression and anxiety.
