For over 20 years I have worked with adults with a wide range of concerns including
• addictions (drug, alcohol, gambling, eating, shopping and hoarding),
• depression, anxiety, PTSD, Trauma
• relationship issues, and career challenges
It takes courage to seek help. Seize the day!
What can you expect? I use a client-centered approach (meaning I believe YOU are the expert on you) as well as proven methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing. I believe this to be the best approach since many people combat difficult emotional problems every day. Therefore, my approach is empowering people and helping them gain control of their life path.
My counseling style is non-judgmental, warm, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
I’m going to say it again: it takes real courage to seek help! With you reaching out, taking the action of scheduling an appointment, I believe you can overcome your struggles and you deserve to seek and find happiness.
I look forward to walking that journey with you. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support you.
