I work from a strength-based model, with appreciation of the individual’s existing coping skills as we work to meet treatment goals.

My work has two different emphases.
#1 I am a child and family therapist; I work sometimes with children individually, and
often I meet with parents included or separately, recognizing the parents’ role in helping
the child. I use activities as well as talk.
#2 I work with youth and adults around issues of growth and well-being. I am
certified as a practitioner of the Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories protocol, which has demonstrated success in alleviating post=traumatic stress symptoms.
