I offer an array of services that include but are not limited to therapy for parenting, individual, group, family, and couples. I offer co-morbid counseling services for adolescents, adults, as well as the LGBT population. I view every client as a unique and will treat each client as such. I will help each client develop his or her own individual counseling goals. I believe that counseling should provide a safe and productive place to share and explore new ways of thinking. During our sessions, I will use several therapeutic approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gestalt Therapy, as well as person-centered individualized approaches.
