I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I provide psychotherapy in a caring, compassionate and comfortable atmosphere.Clients are treated as unique individuals, never losing sight of the fact that their issues are not expected to fit a specific diagnostic code, but instead are varied and distinct in every case. This requires, demands and deserves a client-centered therapeutic approach that is the cornerstone of my practice.I have dedicated my profession to improving and enhancing the mental health and well-being of my clients. Adhering to the guiding principle that a healthful mind is inextricably bound to physical health and merits, at the very least, the same level of care and concern. I work with adults, young adults, particularly those transitioning to living independently or coping with the demands of college. Focus: adjustment difficulties, relationships, developmental challenges, anxiety,depression. I collaborate with clients to increase self-awareness, process their emotions, and learn new skills.I use insight-oriented, supportive, mindfulness-based,cognitive behavior therapy approaches, The human-animal bond is a mutually beneficial, dynamic relationship between people and animals that positively influences the health of clients and pet therapy is helpful in reducing anxiety and depression. While this is an online forum I support your bond to your pets to help reduce current distressing symptoms.. An emerging body of research is recognizing the impact the bond can have on individual and community health.
