Adolescents & Children: When working with adolescents and children, I may use CBT, ERP for OCD, art therapy techniques and animal assisted psychotherapy with my sweet therapy cats. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy we change negative, destructive thoughts that cause stress, anxiety, and mood issues. I often teach mindfulness and meditation techniques as tools for decreasing stress and anxiety. Having been a former school counselor, I can help clients and parents navigate the sometimes confusing topics such as 504 plans, IEP's and who at your child's school to contact for what service. I relate well to children and adolescents and they therefore feel a trusting, open client/counselor bond with me.
Adults: As a counselor, I am an active, non-judgmental listener. My specialty is helping clients with stress, anxiety disorders, OCD, or BFBRP’s using CBT and ERP. I also enjoy supporting clients with tinnitus, hyperacusis, symptoms of depression and those seeking to make positive, healthy changes in their lives and relationships with the help of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Groups: Group counseling is a great way to feel supported by a therapist and others dealing with similar issues. Clients often feel they get more out of counseling when they not only have the expertise of a counselor, but the support and advice of other group members. If I am currently running a group, it will be listed here:
