About My Clients
My experience is primarily with adults ages 18+. I have worked in both community and hospital settings providing group, individual and couples therapy services. I have experience with mood disorders, CBT/DBT, grief and loss, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues and addictions. By understanding the cognitive distortions that are holding you down, we can begin to challenge the negative patterns that prevent you from moving forward in your life.
My Background and Approach
I am a LCSW with experience in helping clients improve their healthy coping skills and understand the dynamics that have been preventing them from living their best life. I focus on helping clients calm their mind and body with different coping skills to provide relief from anxiety, fear and worry. I am direct and solution focused. We will work together to set treatment goals and begin to take steps to harness your emotion mind and bring back equilibrium. With improved skills, you will begin to manage big emotions and cope with your symptoms and stressors more effectively.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe therapy is a journey and anyone can begin to unpack the negative beliefs that have been learned over time. Therapy is about planting seeds, encouraging them to grow and cultivating a healthy garden. As humans, we are resilient and have the capacity to make changes in our lives. You can begin to understand the thinking, feeling and behavioral patterns that are causing pain and begin to free yourself from suffering. You deserve to live your life with ease. I believe in the power of transformation and growth. Even if you are not a gardener like myself, you can still appreciate the beauty around us. In my personal time, I garden, read and volunteer at my local library. Those activities help keep me grounded. If you want to learn more about how we can work together please reach out.
