I view each client as courageous and on a journey of discovery and growth, and I view myself as a partner on that journey. I use a client-centered approach and collaboration between us. tailoring each session to your unique needs. My approach I have been a therapist for many decades and am compassionate, caring, and transparent. Together, we look at your needs first and what brings you to therapy at this time in your life, and then create a pathway forward together. I value a psychosocial and spiritual approach to care, including mindfulness, Mind, body skills, Somatic practices when needed, and approaches of holistic health. Trauma and transformation are two of my specialties, as are anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, and many other issues. I also believe that understanding and working to excavate beliefs that no longer serve can assist in a powerful way in the healing journey. My focus I focus on many issues, including self-esteem, life transitions, support around health-related issues, especially cancer, and issues around grief and loss. I also work with those who feel they've never really had a voice and perhaps have issues related to a lack of self-confidence and struggle to connect with others. My communication style My communication style is direct and empathic, and I am compassionate. I have a sense of humor when it may be helpful, and I believe our work together is a partnership, and I am honored to be working with you. My journey to mental healthcare My journey was born out of having had a severe trauma as a young person-long before we even knew what that was. I worked from a strength-based and a combination therapeutic model, along with coaching. I love working with others and watching overtime as they blossom and grow. Participating in helping others to heal is one of my greatest joys and an honor to be included in someone's life in the therapeutic realm. I'm honored to make a difference in someone's life with my Presence.
