I have experience serving persons from all walks of life and am always interested in learning more about the unique experiences of others. I have experience in crisis counseling, vocational/workplace issues, mood and anxiety disorders and substance use disorders. I also have experience with parents of children with special needs. I have experience with death and grief and other general life issues.

Training: Motivational Interviewing • Crisis Counseling • Vocational Counseling • Substance Use Disorders • Mood Disorders

In practice, I use cognitive behavioral therapy tools as a framework for my practice. I find narrative therapy principles helpful as well as supportive counseling and DBT skills. I offer brief solution focused therapy and often find it helpful to use narrative therapy principles. I work using motivational interviewing to get to the heart of what my clients need and want. I believe that mindfulness is helpful in a variety of situations.
