Mental Health and Wellness Services

I am a firm believer in promoting mental health and wellness through awareness, balance, mind-body connections, nutrition and exercise – versus a symptom-based approach. I also believe clients want and need to take control of/responsibility for their lives. I draw from a variety of therapeutic models when working with clients. I particularly endorse Cognitive-Behavioral, Gestalt, and Solution-Focused Therapy models. The clients I work with come with an open-mind for new ideas and intentions for change and improvement in all aspects of their lives.

Therapy Models – A Brief Description

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – is an empirically supported therapy treatment that examines a client's maladaptive patterns of thinking and their deeper belief system that brings about such thinking.

Gestalt Therapy – therapy treatment in which key concepts are: awareness, personal responsibility, experiencing the "here and now," and examining a person's relationships with others and the world.
