| Practice Description: |
Modern life is stressful. I work with adolescents and adults; individuals, couples, and families. I help my clients develop coping strategies to manage a wide range of stressors, from depression and anxiety to job and marriage issues. Utilizing evidence based practices such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, I collaborate with my clients to develop an individual tailored treatment plan. Whether you are looking for short term solution focused life coaching or long term counseling, my warm, caring style has proven to be very effective.
