About
Working with children of all ages, parents, adults and couples I use a variety of evidence-based treatment approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed, and Strength-based therapy. I work with clients to recognize the power of thoughts and their subsequent reactions/responses. Integrating my formal education in Psychology and Clinical Social Work with my work experiences (teaching, crisis intervention, psychotherapy, and social work) my simple goal is to help clients thrive regardless of life circumstances. I have 30+ years in the field, working with both adults and children. With children I use play, sand-tray, games, and art to understand their experiences and build resiliency. I involved parents so they can effectively support their children. With adults I provide supportive guidance with customized approaches determined by presenting problems.
