My goal is to create a safe environment for people to heal emotionally, behaviorally and spiritually - so that they can integrate real change in their lives. I enjoy counseling families, couples and individuals of all ages - children, adolescents and adults. My main areas are family and marital conflict, rebuilding emotional and spiritual intimacy in relationships, divorce recovery, all kinds of addiction recovery, co-dependency in relationships, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, premarital counseling, emotional healing from family of origin, communication skills and parenting skills.
I work from an integrative therapeutic perspective - utilizing many different techniques to customize a comprehensive experience for my clients. In addition to being an LCSW, I am a certified marriage and family therapist. I also have a specialty working with men, women and adolescents who struggle with eating disorders.
I have had extensive training in experiential/psychodrama groups and lead a bi-weekly group. I also have had extensive training in the Internal Family Systems (IFS)model. I am Level 2 certified in Eye-Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR).
