About
I believe that every person can benefit from receiving counseling at some point in their lives. We all face struggles with achieving our goals, understanding and overcoming our past hurts, or resolving conflict with others. It can be extremely helpful to have a compassionate, objective person to talk to when these issues arise. I truly enjoy developing a caring, supportive relationship with each client. This connection can then be the foundation for facilitating understanding, growth, and positive change. I enjoy working with clients to identify their strengths and develop realistic, achievable goals.
I utilize many therapeutic tools based on the needs of each client including cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, family systems, and mindfulness/meditation techniques. I work with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages on various issues, both individually or in group settings.
In the past, I have worked with foster and adoptive families. Working with this population is still my passion and an area that I strive to maintain competency in. I am trained to treat adoptive families using Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, developed by Dr. Dan Hughes.
