My Approach to Helping
I have counseled for over 30 years in the private practice setting. I enjoy working with a wide variety of clients ranging from adolescents to those in their golden years. I have extensive experience providing individual therapy with highly motivated clients who struggle with mood issues, high levels of stress, and daily management challenges. As a certified grief specialist, I treat individuals who are experiencing varying levels of grief from life-shattering events to losses of daily routines and relationships. I see clients who reside in Colorado and Oklahoma, including those with Blue Cross of Oklahoma and Tricare.
My insight, goal-oriented approach enables clients to take ownership of their future. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, family systems approach, trauma-informed care, and supportive therapy in my practice. I also focus on clients who are experiencing varying levels of grief from significant, life-shattering events to losses of daily routines and relationships.
As a therapist, I have walked many clients through their crises and helped them move further along in their individual journey. The overall goal is to help relieve the pain and struggles and to restore stability and pleasure in their lives. For clients who are struggling with loss, I provide a very safe environment to slowly address their grief.
