Therapy style
I have experience in a wide variety of specialties such as infidelity, divorce stress grief therapy/counseling, and caregivers of those with dementia. I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 25 years. It has been the most rewarding career. I see each patient I treat as an opportunity to help them grow, heal, learn, strengthen themselves, and nurture themselves to be their most authentic self. I am caring, attentive, genuine, interactive, and most of all, a guide to helping someone set goals to achieve that can make them feel happier and more fulfilled in their life. I have an eclectic approach utilizing psychodynamic principles, interpersonal therapy, solutions-focused therapy, coping skills training, psychoeducation, goal-setting strategies, and more.
