About My Clients
I've worked as a therapist in many areas of practice for over 25 years. I focus on working with individuals, couples, families and with the LGBTQIA community. Areas of expertise include mood & anxiety disorders, addiction & recovery and childhood trauma. I support all sexual orientations, gender expressions and relationship statuses.
My Background and Approach
Our successes and struggles have roots in our personal, relational, family and cultural histories. These concerns are maintained by present day patterns of thinking, feeling and relating. I support clients in finding solutions to challenges by helping them change the patterns that no longer lead to resolution and fulfillment. I can offer an integrative approach beyond traditional therapy, including mindfulness-based interventions, to build and support awareness, regulation and sense of well-being.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I recognize that each course of treatment is deeply personal and unique. I'm committed to establishing an open and collaborative therapeutic relationship, offering a safe, nonjudgmental, supportive environment for growth and change. I collaborate with each client to determine unique treatment goals that respect their right to self-determination. I believes enhanced self esteem, improved coping skills and a more empowered decision making process are the foundation for a less burdened, more uplifted & more authentic life. My unique skills help clients create and choose a greater range of responses to life’s challenges.
