“If the problem can be solved why worry? If the problem cannot be solved- worrying will do you no good.”
-Shantideva For the last five years my experience has involved providing mental health services to adults, children, teens and families. As a counselor my goal is to walk with you, or your child, through the unexpected that life has put in front of you. As an adult you may have to unexpectedly deal with a difficult loss, work through prior trauma or manage overwhelming anxiety or depression. Life can feel beyond stressful and at times- incredibly cruel. We are social beings and there is no reason for us to face these hurdles alone. I view therapy as one tool at our disposal for healing- I believe that social connection, exercise, expressive activities such as dance and yoga, reiki, spirituality and community play a crucial part as well. Using an evidence-based approach to understand your story and support you through what you are working to overcome; my approach is strength-based and includes elements of family systems, ACT, DBT, CBT, mindfulness and expressive therapies. I focus on a growth mindset and take a holistic approach opposed to focusing solely on reduction of symptoms. Feel free to contact me to see if I would be a good fit for what you are looking for! |
