10+ years of well-rounded experience has given me an advantage in helping people work through a variety of issues that are important to them. Experience includes work with all ages, homelessness, families and substance use issues (including medication assisted therapy). My goal is to see individuals not only survive, but to thrive. Skilled at using Cognitive Behavioral therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy techniques and Solution-Focused questions that can improve mental health functioning. Persons who respond well to encouragement, and who are willing to try new coping measures and communication skills, will be surprised at how much clearer they will see their circumstances and choices. Acceptance, normalization when appropriate, occasional challenging questions, and use of relaxation exercises as strategies of therapy will help improve one's quality of life. I like to see those I serve leave with greater emotional intelligence, laughing often, forgiving frequently and being able to see a more positive future. If I have helped anyone to have hope - I have achieved a step towards their healing. I frequently provide homework assignments and processing when talk therapy or listening doesn't lead to the results desired. Give me a call when you feel ready to make life changes in the area that you feel is appropriate and we will work together at your level of comfort to make the positive changes you desire. For those wishing to address PTSD consider visiting me in the office for Accelerated Resolution Therapy. BetterHelp does not provide a format for in person treatment - this would be private pay or insurance funding.
