We listen, act, and transform
“Therapy is too good to be limited to the sick” – Erving Polster. Every individual has a story that needs to be told or listened to. My mindful approach, is to help others write their stories. Then with compassion and assertiveness help those change or continue their story. I have familiarity working with adults, individuals with chronic illnesses, first responders, teenagers with chronic illness, SPMI population, trauma, complex trauma, depression, anxiety, support during life transitions, chronic illnesses, individuals with dual diagnosis (not in active use), relationship upset, emotional dysregulation and stress management.
I have worked in the mental health field since 2004 and as a therapist since 2014. My training also includes EMDR. In session, the treatment approach and focus will be on EMDR, strength based, cognitive behavioral, cognitive processing, dialectical behavioral, person centered, solution focused, and motivational interviewing therapy approaches.
Therapy is a process to empower us, restore our energy and clarify what we need out of our lives. Working together we can clarify and refresh our story.
