I am a licensed professional counselor, with 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples and groups. I work with clients to create an environment of warmth, encouragement, and acceptance which enables them to explore their challenges and make significant life changes. I adjust my approach to meet the specific needs of each individual, ensuring that each client is provided with the compassion and understanding they need to achieve their personal goals.
I use a combination of various therapeutic techniques, including psychodynamic, behavioral and cognitive techniques to create a safe and supportive environment in order for us to work together to reduce symptoms, improve self esteem, communicate feelingsĀ and create healthier relationships. I believe that every person is capable of great change and will use a variety of interventions to help you reach the place you may have believed you'd never reach.
As well as my years of psychotherapy training I am also trained as a Certified Sex addiction therapist and a Certified Multiple addictions therapist (drugs, alcholol and food). I am also highly trained in treating trauma, drawing from a variety of methodlogies including EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
