If you are suffering from Anxiety, Panic Attacks, or from any trauma or emotional neglect, I can help you. If anxiety, depression, or flashbacks are constantly keeping you from moving forward and feeling better seeking therapy is the right beginning. You may likely feel stuck and hopeless or powerless to change.
Juggling the many demands placed upon us, we often focus more on getting "through" the day, than enjoying it. Stress from any source--relationships, family/parenting, occupational or financial, can have a devastating effect on both our physical and emotional well being. Because we concentrate more on what happened in our past, yesterday, and our expectations of the future, tomorrow, we fail to recognize the possibilities for happiness and joy that exist TODAY!
I have been counseling and assisting clients for over 28 years build bridges to a more satisfying and happier life. Through the process of therapy, we develop a kind of "road map"together. As an objective professional I act as a type of guide, and assist you in identifying your goals (your destination), recognize obstacles that you may be facing, help motivate you in the right direction giving you tips and tools to use to change past coping mechanisms that may not have been optimal, and give you new strategies that you clearly understand and can implement to create the life you desire and deserve.
I welcome the opportunity to help you in your quest for a better life!
Make your dream of a brighter tomorrow a reality...today.
Treatment Modalities: I strongly believe in tailoring treatment to meet each person's specific needs. While I have received advanced training in a variety of therapeutic approaches,I favor solution-focused, cognitive behavioral approach directed at changing maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. I feel that counseling should be time limited, with my client's goals clearly identified. Again I welcome the opportunity to assist you in your quest for happiness.
