I practice client-centered, psychodynamic therapy with individuals, couples, and groups to address symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship dysfunction, and/or addiction. I employ integrative, strengths-based approaches to assist individuals in coping with current manifestations, and exploring and resolving issues which may have evolved circumstantially, temporarily presenting a barrier to an otherwise strong sense of overall well-being. Clients learn the benefits of improved self-awareness, personal boundaries, and taking responsibility for one's own future. I work with adults to support individual growth, and positive living, in a collaborative setting, utilizing motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, rational emotive behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, pyschoeducational resources, and psychoanalytic methodology. As a clinician and educator, I support mental wellness and life-long learning as a means of facilitating the process of change. A progressive shift in thinking can result in healthy psychological, emotional, and social functioning which are evident in gratifying relationships, and meaningful participation in personal and professional lives.
