Life can be daunting and stressful. For every difficulty there is a solution. I believe it is within us all to become energized to lead happy, productive lives. Sometimes we just need some extra support to reach our goals. My favorite part about being a psychotherapist is helping people realize their strengths and become empowered to lead healthy lives. This power is within all of us. We just need to tap into it. I can help you learn how to do that. I have a very broad background in the mental health field for the past 30 years. I enjoy working with adolescents, families, couples, and people who are addicted to anything.
My passion is helping adolescents, families and people who struggle with addiction. Adolescents face particular challenges at this time of their lives. They need special support and it is my pleasure to provide a safe environment so they can flourish and grow. Families and families dealing with addiction can heal. I have seen it happen and it is real.
Systems Therapy concentrates on family dynamics because none of us lives in a vacuum. I also use DBT and CBT therapies. Mindfulness and living in the present is so important to mental health. It would be my pleasure help you learn these skills. My clients seem to improve their mental health as they progress through therapy with me.
