“In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”–Einstein |
I am a licensed mental health counselor with the State of Arizona. I graduated from the University of Phoenix and have six years of experience in the mental health field working with many different kinds of people.
My practice focuses on mindfulness and self-awareness, shifting perspectives from the flow of thoughts and emotions to the deeper self. I am also trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy and Motivational Interviewing, great for changing a behavior that no longer works for you, or re-training your reactions and beliefs. Counseling with me is generally brief (you probably won’t be lying on the couch for a few years), and focused on your goals for yourself.
When you make an appointment with me, we will review your goals. We will work on what you want to, not what I think you should. We will develop a treatment plan that you are in charge of.
Remember, change is your goal and responsibility. Let me help you on your road to a better life.
I have experience and enjoy working with the following:
* Behavior Changes
* Anxiety and Stress
* Abuse and Trauma
* Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
* GLBT Friendly (yes I love to work with trans folks–see my note about “the letter” on the rates page, please.)
*”Alternative lifestyles” including polyamory and BDSM.
*Spiritual Exploration
* Domestic Violence
* Relationship Issues
* Women’s Issues
*Addictions (alcohol, drugs, gambling, etc.)
* Parenting
* Divorce Recovery
* Legal Issues
* Anger Management
* Work or Career Issues
