About My Clients
While my clients come from a variety of backgrounds and face different challenges, they all share one thing in common - hope that things can improve.
My Background and Approach
As a nationally-certified, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I have extensive experience working with clients dealing with mood disorders, anxiety, PTSD and/or trauma-related symptoms. Coupled with my background in coaching, I will engage you in two ways: 1) a look back at the conditions which contributed to your current distress and 2) a look forward to define how you want to shape your future. This involves creating a specific vision of your desired outcome and a plan to achieve it. I wholeheartedly believe in the change process and, while difficult, it can lead to a more peaceful, satisfying and productive future. I am a firm believer in people's ability to identify solutions to the problems they are facing. What you will experience with me is an atmosphere of acceptance, empathy and a non-judgmental approach. Additionally, I will encourage you to define goals for yourself and work towards achieving and/or exceeding them.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am an artist and writer. If you look on my website you will see examples of my mixed media art which I believe is an extension of emotional wellness. I also write a weekly blog on topics connected to mental health.
