Welcome to my counseling office.
My intention is that our time and work is of great value to you.
In my time as a counselor, and in life in general, I have seen that most of us are interested in having thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are helpful, make sense and allow us to enjoy our day to day lives.
The approach to my counseling is primarily Brain-Based and solution focused to provide an understanding of how mind works and to quickly arrive at goals and healing. I have also found that by using methods to calm the mind and access focus, you are able to learn and update faster and have longer lasting effects.
I am trained as a Rapid Resolution Therapy Practitioner and also in Brain Based Hypnotherapy. In addition, I have many years of training and experience in traditional counseling techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I provide a counseling environment that is judgment-free, creative and light-hearted.
In my over 15 years of counseling experience, I have had the privilege of working with adolescents, adults, couples and families.
Specializing in:
Anxiety
Panic Disorder
Trauma
Post Partum Issues/Birth Trauma
Addiction
Premarital/Couples Counseling
Grief/Loss Counseling
Career/Performance Counseling
COUPLES/FAMILIES: Some of the most important relationships we have or will develop in our lives are with our family or significant others. Working with couples is something I greatly enjoy and if your goal is to improve your marriage or relationship, I want to give you the skills you need to do so. I have been certified with PREPARE and ENRICH to counsel premarital couples and relationships. Family involvement is also something I continually encourage and love to help with.
ADOLESCENTS/YOUNG ADULTS: I have been fortunate to have much experience in working with adolescents and young adults. I believe strongly that young people need to be encouraged, supported and learn that they have the strength to make changes, handle difficult situations and improve their confidence. Frequently, having a neutral third party to talk with and learn from, and a comfortable, safe environment, is the key to building their coping skills and bolster their self responsibility to continue to grow into adults. In addition, the prevention of suicide, avoiding or dealing with legal involvement and preventing substance use are of utmost importance to me when it comes to this next generation.
**I see adolescents age 13 and up**
Regular therapy appointments are scheduled for 45-60 minute sessions.
Rapid Resolution Therapy appointments are designed for and scheduled in longer increments.
Typically, I see clients during the day Monday through Thursday and late afternoon and evening times on Tuesdays.
I am a provider for Aetna, BCBS, Tricare, Community First Health PPO. In addition, I also offer billing for many other out of network insurance plans.
