It is a privilege and honor to work in the field of mental health and wellness. I have the utmost respect for the individuals and families with whom I work. Making the choice to come to therapy is often a difficult – even intimidating- decision. But it can also be incredibly empowering and rewarding. I have been thoroughly trained in the Structural and Strategic models of Family Therapy. Additionally, I have experience in Narrative, Solution-Focused, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapies. I have worked with a diverse community of clients seeking assistance for a wide array of challenges, such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, school related problem, divorce, parent-child relational problems, partner relational problems, and adjustment to life transitions. I conduct individual, couple/marital, family, and group therapy. I focus on providing a safe, supportive, and accepting environment. I believe that all individuals are capable, adaptive, and resourceful. I seek to help clients identify and leverage the skills and strengths they already possess, thereby enabling them to live richer, more fulfilling lives. I believe we all have a unique story to share. I take the time to join with each client, working to develop a comprehensive understanding of the story that has created the person(s) before me. I often incorporate family systems work, recognizing the fact that no human being exists in isolation. It is imperative for each individual to examine his or her relationships in depth and endeavor to understand how he or she influences, and is influenced by others. I hold each client accountable to comprehend the full dimension of the problem and then, collaborate in creating and implementing practical, achievable, and meaningful solutions. I believe that the definition of health, wellness, and happiness is unique to each individual and family. I will partner with you in discovering and co-creating a pathway to wellness best suited for your needs and goals. I look forward to the journey!
