Please leave the name of your insurance when you contact me so I can best serve you. Adults, children, adolescents, and their families are welcomed in my private practice, and playroom for the children. My specialty for over 25 years has been working with children, adolescents, and their families. After becoming a Level II EMDR trauma therapist in the past 20 years, I have worked with many adults challenged by difficulties. Both my adult and child clients are often faced with depression, anxiety, and grief commonly created by divorce, death, adoption, abuse, and feelings of hopelessness, anger, and poor self-esteem.
I enjoy offering new clients a first free half hour consultation. I offer evening appts plus daytime hours, and children's groups. EMDR is very helpful with trauma or other difficulties. EMDR, Energy Psychology, DBT which incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Mindfulness, and Play Therapy for children all tend to relieve anxiety & depression.
The majority of my clients are suffering with anxiety and depression due to a variety of challenges or trauma in their lives. The boys and girls ages 2 -12 that I work with in Play Therapy are typically bright and sensitive and more apt to be anxious by nature. My overall approach is supportive, nurturing, and compassionate to create a safe environment.
