| Practice Description: |
With today’s challenges, we need more effective and efficient strategies for managing our lives. Whether it is a lifetime of worry, reoccurring depression, or a recent crisis; my gift is empowering people to overcome their obstacles.
Share with me what it is like to be you and I will share with you my thirty years of experience as a Psychotherapist. Together we will create a plan for safely transforming your negative life experiences into healthier perspectives that will provide lasting relief.
More specifically, each session is likely to include a blend of:
Understanding your role in your family and environment,
Reprocessing disturbing events for resolution,
Integrating healthier messages, and
Learning new life skills in areas such as asserting, relaxing, dating, or parenting,
I believe my practice is distinguished by the attention I am able to provide to my clients’ individual needs, and the privacy of its peaceful home and garden setting.
