About My Clients
I am experienced and very comfortable working with survivors of emotional, sexual and physical violence and those recovering from narcissistic relationships. Mental health can affect all areas of life, and I am skilled in identifying what is stopping individuals from progressing to the next stage in their careers and personal lives.
My Background and Approach
My approach to therapy is to create organic dialogue and genuine trust between therapist and patient. I excel in person centered, active listening, as well as validation for the extreme suffering we humans endure throughout our lives. I guide the patient gently and carefully in the rewriting of their life narratives to a place of strength and resilience. My modalities of choice are DBT and logotherapy. I attended LIU CW POST and received a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling. I have also undergone extensive clinical training with the underprivileged/high risk population. I have been diagnosed with ADHD myself and suffer from chronic illness; I have been married for almost two decades, and the parent of three children. My range of life experiences helps me view the patients’ world through a realistic lens, and with sincere empathy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
What occured to us as children is not our fault, and many of us were just bystanders. If one experienced trauma during childhood, one needs to talk about it and place the blame on the correct party. Lift the burden off one's own shoulders.
