Professional Counselor/Therapist

| Services: |
Psychotherapy/Counseling

| Practice Description: |
I believe that people have existing strengths, resources and problem-solving skills. As a therapist, my goal is to enhance my client's belief in their own inner strength, resources and resilience. When these resources are identified and amplified, positive change occurs. My focus is solution-oriented, encouraging clients to move out of analyzing the nature of the problem and instead to find the solutions and take action to solve it.
I offer day and evening appointment times; Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday's until 7pm.
