Ensure the right conditions for growth. We're all faced with challenges, big and small. Sometimes these grow to overpower and overwhelm us. The adults, children, and families I work with say that I help them feel heard, valued, comfortable, and that I provide a safe place to explore options and pick the right solutions to grow and change.
These are the issues my clients face most often:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Divorce
- Grief/Loss
- Trauma
- Anger Management/Bullying
- Addiction/Drug & Alcohol Abuse
- ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder)
- Parenting Skills
- Communication Skills
- Social Skills
The following are the models I primarily use:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
