I provide confidential care in a professional environment. My services include mental health treatment and marriage/couples counseling. In mental health, I utilize both an interpersonal and cognitive behavioral approach to mood disorders (which includes both moderate and severe depression, as well as bipolar disorder). I am especially interested in treating anxiety, including generalized anxiety, panic disorders, phobias, acute stress, PTSD & obsessive-compulsive disorders. In these treatments, I utilize cognitive behavioral treatments and exposure response prevention techniques. I also provide services to couples, families and groups of couples utilizing components of structural, strategic and communications models for my work. Much of my work evolves around connections between myself and the person/people I work with. This connectedness is vital to the development of trust in the clinical relationship. The clinical relationship is bounded by the evolving trust that people will not be judged or their confidentiality violated. Each individual I work with, whether individually or as part of a couple or group, is unique in their own way, and with this sense of uniqueness comes respect for that person and the issues he or she brings into the therapeutic process.
