| Practice Description: |
Stressors that were once manageable are starting to overwhelm you. Solutions that used to work no longer seem to help, causing you to slowly lose hope. You know need help, but the thought of making a phone call to a professional causes you to hesitate. I know what these struggles are like, and I can help. I have nearly 25 years of experience providing effective, evidence-based therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. If you or your child are like most people I work with, you are highly capable, and with some professional guidance, we can remove the obstacles in your way and get your life back on track.
I offer a practical, solution-focused approach, often providing direct feedback for coping with stressors, resolving their underlying causes, and reaching your goals. The process starts with me “meeting you where you are at,” proceeding at your pace, and pursuing your preferred focus. This will build the trust necessary for your therapy to be effective.
It has been said, “if you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Similarly, if we can use your therapy to gently adjust how you think about and react to stressful life events, you can improve your overall outlook and start to feel better soon.
