Practice Focus

I have experience with a variety of treatment settings and client issues including: anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, grief and loss, relationship issues, personal growth, self-esteem, substance use, adolescents, multicultural and career counseling.  I work from a broadly based cognitive behavioral approach, but also incorporate other theoretical interventions ranging from solution focused therapy to attachment theory.  Research shows, however, that the most important driver of positive change is the working alliance between therapist and client.  My goal is to create the safe space in which we can work together to create positive outcomes.
