Each of us is unique. We all come from different backgrounds and cultures. People suffer in different ways and pain can manifest itself through our mental health in various forms such as depression, anxiety, and a myriad of physical and health problems. My goal is to help you make positive changes in your life in order to become the person you aspire to be. I believe no matter how challenging the process, we need to be content and be our authentic selves. In order to do this, we need to explore our struggles and gain insight and make positive change in our lives.
I specialize in pre-marital, couples, individual and child therapy. My experience includes working with anxiety, depression, trauma, family discord, addiction, eating disorders, and LBGTQ issues. I have been in the counseling field for the past 20 years. I utilize a person-centered, cognitive-behavioral and family systems approach.
I am educated, well trained, and experienced in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR is a form of psychotherapy which uses eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation to assist trauma victims in processing distressing memories and beliefs. It is commonly used for the treatment of PTSD, depression, and other anxiety disorders.
