I enjoy working with clients with lived experience, who are self-motivated and supporting them through life changes. The senior population fits this description. I also understand generational issues and can empathize with the fast-changing times but also the desire to stay healthy and vibrant as you age and want to have the best quality of life in your years ahead. I also respect this cohort of the population for their wisdom and believe I have just as much to learn from my clients as they do from me.
I have provided therapy in person in several parts of the U.S. and therefore have diverse experience with clients across the county and lifespan. I have been a clinical director in many of my roles as well as a professor at several community colleges. The bulk of my experience has been with teens and adults/seniors with depression, anxiety, mood disorders and dual diagnosis (overcoming addiction).
I take a solution-focused, here-and-now, behavioral intervention type approach for desired results and continued momentum in your life. I enjoy working with couples as well and therefore try to understand the individual within their “system” and larger support group. I believe in balance and also addressing the totality of someone’s life (i.e., health, wellness, hobbies, social connections). I also take on positive psychology methods, humor, and pride myself on being a genuine and transparent clinician.
