My Approach to Helping
Do you feel sad or overwhelmed? Is anxiety preventing you from achieving your goals? Are you dissatisfied with your relationships and feel unable to change your life? Do you have difficulty sleeping? I can help you change your life and become the person you want to be. I believe the most important aspect of therapy is the bond between a client and the therapist; I make every effort to achieve this bond right from the first session. My goal is to have you leave each session with a sense of peace and hope. Please don't hesitate to call. I have been a licensed therapist since 1990. My specialties include the treatment of depression, anxiety and all addictive disorders. I work with children, adolescents and adults. I also have extensive experience in working with children (ages 5-12), specifically in the areas of play and art therapies. My philosophy is primarily based on the cognitive behavioral approach, however, my method of treatment varies according to the needs of each individual client. When working with children, art and play therapies are used.
