WHAT MY CLIENTS SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ME

I specialize in individuals who want help in the following areas: improving relationships, anxiety, feeling stuck, depression, self esteem, employment issues and career concerns. In addition I am also experienced helping people with parenting and family issues. I help individuals gain insight into how to identify and improve current patterns and create new ones that serve them better.   

 

MY APPROACH TO THERAPY

I use therapy to help people gain insight into what troubles them, what motivates them, what the triggers are, how patterns develop, and what keeps them stuck in certain disappointing patterns.  With self understanding often comes an improved ability to change and more constructive behaviors are achieved. I also use practical cognitive behavioral techniques with individuals who want to target specific behaviors and habits they want to change
