My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which I have been practicing for more than ten years. I am supportive, collaborative, and evidence-based. Together we will explore the obstacles that you are facing and I will assist you in developing new ways to overcome them. I am well-suited to both short-term, solution-focused therapy and long-term, exploratory counseling.
Personal: In my spare time, I enjoy being outdoors, reading, playing music, spending time with my family, and attempting to match the energy level of our small children. Did I mention I love coffee? Next to being a counselor and the study of psychology and human behavior, music is one of my other true passions in life. One of my favorite things to do is to listen to some classic rock or folk/indie tunes while attempting to sing and play along on my guitar.
Work History: I have more than 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, teens, and adults of all ages. I no longer work with children or adolescents. My experience includes several years in acute crisis stabilization where I did two to three groups per day with clients who were mainly depressed and acutely anxious. I have also done intensive in-home counseling with children and their families. I was director of a crisis stablization facility for clients who had developmental delays and psychiatric diagnoses. I was a counselor for community health service boards for more than five years in both rural and city settings.
