My Approach
My focus is all about connection. Connection with self and with others. My work is about connecting with clients on a genuine, compassionate and human level. I work with clients on a multitude of issues that include: anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, individuals, couples and families.
​
My approach is driven from your needs. I offer my clients the opportunity to reach inside themselves to find the courage to take risks, find their voice and to embrace the resilience to keep going, even when this seems difficult to fathom. My style could be characterized as being conversational, informal but serious and focused upon your healing. I'm an excellent listener, and unabashed in offering words, feelings and tools to ease your burden and move toward healing your pain.
​
My personal journey has prepared me to connect with you on many levels. As a daughter, I suffered from trauma, PTSD, abandonment and grief. As a mother to many, I understand family dynamics and the anxiety surrounding their affect on our daily lives. As a wife, I strive for the work/life/self balance that perhaps you struggle with as well. I have lived these things and now through my practice desire to work with you to make the changes toward your healing and growth.
​
Coupled with my "life education", I am formally educated in the areas of my specialization. Aside from being multi-degreed, my studies have led to expertise in both the Gottman and EMDR theraputic techniques.
