I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and clinician alike. But in the end coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results. My therapeutic style is collaborative and interactive. Together we will embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing. My therapeutic approach incorporates CPT, EMDR and Motivational Interviewing. I have over 15 years experience in social services and mental health serving children and families in the foster care system. My experience includes working with at-risk youth, families in crisis, women impacted by domestic violence, adolescents and children coping with chronic mental health illness. I specialize in therapy for women and adolescents.
