Are you coping with serious life challenges such as divorce, mental/ physical health problems or a troubled child ? Does it seem like you've tried everything but "nothing works"? You've tried talking to friends & family, but you really need solutions, not sympathy. I combine a direct, yet supportive approach with effective strategies for addressing both the cause & symptoms of the problem. My goal is empowering clients, not making them dependent on therapy or on me. When positive changes start to take place, the results are: healthier relationships and behaviors, less stress & suffering and greater confidence & hope for the future.
Based on the client/family's needs,I utilize cognitive-behavioral, family systems, play therapy, stress reduction or biofeedback techniques to address unhealthy thinking, emotions & behavior patterns, unproductive or self defeating beliefs, behaviors or relationship dynamics. Learning new skills is work, but using humor, I make it fun as well.
I am a certified provider of LENS neurofeedback - an effective, painless & non-invasive alternative to medication for both adults and children, for the treatment of anxiety & mood disorders, ADHD, autism, PTSD, OCD, chronic pain & brain injury. I also utilize the Heart Math biofeedback system for treating various stress related conditions.
