My Approach to Helping
I am a caring, experienced, licensed psychotherapist who can assist you to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of your happiness so that you can achieve what you want in your life. I am flexible and creative in my approach: I use a variety of therapeutic tools to address the specific problems which a client may be experiencing. I am very supportive and accepting; I can empathize with others, having successfully worked through my own life challenges.
In my therapy "tool box" are Cognitive-Behavior Therapy techniques to help you to reduce those beliefs and thoughts that cause painful emotions such as depression and anxiety, Stress Reduction Techniques, Expressive Therapy techniques to assist with difficulty expressing emotions; I am always looking for new effective ways to help clients.
I tend to "go the extra mile" for my clients if research is needed for a particularly difficult problem a client is experiencing. I have clients who have sought my help after having had difficulty finding appropriate therapy to suit their needs.
