We listen, act, and transform
Life has a way of throwing obstacles (trauma, depression, anxiety, addictions, etc.) in your path and for some reason we feel the need to control these obstacles. Guess what, encountering obstacles in life doesn't make you weak or a bad person - it makes you human. Regardless of the situation or circumstances, everyone has the capacity to get through life's difficulties. If you allow me to take this journey with you, I'll help you channel your resources, build off your number one strength (yourself) and help you transition from attempting to control problems to finding balance by learning how to manage them instead.
I have more than 17 years of experience working with adolescents, families, and individuals with co-occurring disorders. I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Reality Therapy as evidenced based theoretical approaches to my practice. I specialize in working with adolescents and individuals with co-occurring disorders.
