My Approach to Helping
Substance abuse, depression, anxiety and difficulties surrounding divorce, are some of the prevalent issues that affect us today. I have a great deal of passion for working with children, adolescents & young adults to deal with current struggles surrounding a variety of areas. I have several years of experience counseling teens with substance abuse issues, as well as offering support to the family unit. My experience also includes a degree in art therapy, which is a great tool in counseling young people. The use of art therapy can be a unique way for children and teens to open up and process areas of strong emotional content.
