"My focus is to help people thrive and achieve their goals, while developing areas of strength and resiliency. I utilize a variety of therapies including Cognitive Behavioral, Positive Psychology principles, Wellness, Insight Oriented and Solution Focused techniques to individualize treatment. My background has afforded me the opportunity to work with the severely and persistently mentally ill population and their families, survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse and neglect, victims of crime and people from alcoholic family systems. I am passionate about working with women, specifically, women's issues with physical and mental health or family and social roles. Additionally, my practice has been centered around working with individuals recovering from trauma, those dealing with a challenging phase of life, or dealing with burn-out or compassion fatigue from caregiving responsibilities or stressful employment."
