My mission is to help clients learn new ways to cope with behavioral issues, grief, and relationship issues and provide them with an integrated therapy which combines behavioral and psychoanalytic approaches. It is my goal to develop strong working relationships as I focus on helping my clients find solutions to their emotional challenges and to work through crisis, trauma and transitions so they can develop and enhance their behavioral health. My experience includes in-patient psychiatry, out-patient, schools, and courts with a diverse range of people.
I specialize in insight oriented psychotherapy as well as a brief form of solution focused counseling and life coaching. My specialties include the treatment of mood disorders, behavioral issues, grief and relationship issues. I utilize evidence and strength-based psychotherapy to guide adults and teens to achieve their own positive solutions.
I provide Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Coaching and Eclectic types of therapy. I begin my relationship with the client by completing the Intake, and evaluating and assessing a client's strengths, needs, challenges. We work together to develop a treatment plan that focuses on their needs, and goals along with realistic ways to achieve success.
