About

I have been in the mental health and substance abuse field for over 20 years. I have worked with clients with a variety of needs ranging from depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and substance abuse issues. I work with adolescent and adult populations. My therapy approach is Family Therapy, Cognitive , Solution Focus Therapy, Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing . I will explore the client’s feelings, develop trust, and provide empathy while helping the client's understand problems of their past. I will also assist the client in understanding and modifying behaviors that are harmful or unsuccessful and assist them in making positive life changes. Negative and irrational beliefs, which provoke unacceptable behavior, client's will assist in developing behaviors that are more appropriate and increasing self-esteem.
