effective
personal therapy are empathy, trust and
safety all inclusive in the environment
for the client.
My specialties include life transitions, coping with physical illness, stress anxiety, and depression associated with work relationships, family relationships, retirement, and frustrations with hopes and dreams.
I have trained in a variety of therapeutic modalities and have found unresolved early childhood issues to be the basis for many of the problems that become apparent in the present.
I have been working with children and families helping them to resolve conflicts in their relationships during the past fifteen years. I have completed Resiliency Training, which taught me the flexibility each person has to help them resolve many of their problems.
PHILOSOPHY AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
Psychotherapy is a unique and distinctive process in which you are
given the
opportunity to develop a very special relationship with a trained and
skilled professional who can help you with relationship problems in
your
personal and/or professional lives.
In order for the psychotherapeutic process to be effective, I believe
it is
important that the relationship between the therapist and client be
based on
trust and safety. It is also vital that the process be suited and
paced to
each individual's particular needs.
Because I am aware of these individual needs of my clients, I provide a
safe, trusting and supportive environment for them. Through many years
of
working with clients, I have learned the importance of being listened
to,
understood, and guided when necessary, so that the end of the journey
feels
productive and meaningful.
The journey is not unlike the planting of a seed that requires
nurturing to
help the seed develop into a beautiful strong flower that is able to
withstand stormy weather in between the days of sunshine.
If other resources are required along the way, I furnish clients with
appropriate referrals to other professionals who can help them come
closer
to reaching their goals.
As an experienced therapist, I would look forward to helping you to
explore,
understand and either accept or change behavior patterns that have
become
troublesome in your life.
