Therapist Overview
Life can present many challenges: anxiety, depression, complex decisions, parenting issues, relationship difficulties. trauma, grief, and life transitions. Crisis intervention, working with children in family transitions, adoption, senior issues and teaching social skills and emotional intelligence coaching are areas that can benefit from support. Through collaboration, in a strength based, trauma informed and supportive setting, navigating these growth opportunities can become more manageable. My philosophy is to begin where you are, engage by actively listening and creating a setting of trust to discuss challenges and identified goals. Approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Therapy, in a trauma informed focus are my specializations we will discuss to plan your services. Growth and change are possible through the therapy process by enhancing your self- awareness and personal insights, and challenging patterns that may be holding you back from your authentic self. Our therapy alliance will be an engaged collaboration where you are validated, empowered and an active participant in all aspects of the process.
