I began my current practice in 2007 in order to provide a more private and comfortable place for my clients and to be able to more fully meet their needs. I primarily specialize in working with children, teenagers, young adults, parents, and families. I utilize a variety of techniques and strategies in my therapy sessions with clients, and my primary form of treatment is cognitive-behavioral therapy. I like to help people identify their feelings, learn how to better manage these feelings, and help people identify their beliefs about themselves and the world around them. Once people can identify these feelings and beliefs, they can begin the process of developing more healthy ways of viewing themselves, others, and the world around them and in turn lead more fully-functional, joy-filled, and peaceful lives. I also enjoy helping families develop better communication patterns and helping parents develop and implement more effective parenting strategies.
