About

I believe in the individual spirit. I work with the client where they are at starting in the first individual session and use traditional psychotherapy as well as a variety of eclectic techniques. I work with adults and adolescents around issues including addiction, anxiety, depression and attachment. I am dedicated to helping individuals discover new perspectives and solutions to difficult life challenges so that they may unleash and experience their true potential. I have extensive experience treating clients in residential and outpatient treatment settings. My genuine interest in people has helped me facilitate building the necessary therapeutic relationship to bring about change within the client. I am able to treat clients with efficacy and efficiency, guided by the primary motivation of the client’s welfare and success. My extensive experience has seen me work with both adults and children of varying ages and cultural backgrounds, presenting with a diverse range of complaints and conditions. I am able to communicate effectively with clients and adapt my style and techniques according to individual needs and personalities. I enjoy the challenges of working with different people and find the work incredibly rewarding.
