I have a deep belief that life should be enjoyed. There are many things that can create limits in life, and whether it is our own fault, or someone else's, these limits do not have to keep us from enjoying life. I have extensive work with people who have struggled with drug and alcohol addictions, sexual addictions, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, trauma, as well as parenting and adoption concerns. I have seen clients achieve balance in life, greater self-awareness, and overcome ways of thinking and behavior that have limited life's enjoyment and success.
As a Cognitive Behaviorally based therapist I focus on those thinking patterns that clients may not be fully aware of that create barriers to personal and relationship growth. I utilize the stages of change model as a way to identify the methods too achieving sustained change and growth in a person's life.
Thank you taking the time to read my profile. I look forward to talking with you and deciding if I can be of help to you. I like to use practical methods and approaches so that growth is manageable and possible. Feel free to contact me and schedule an appointment. I do provide evening and Saturday morning appointment times to fit with work schedules.
