Overview
Life today is very complex and difficult. Individuals dealing with life challenges and responsibilities, do experience life events they were not prepared for that cause them to get stuck. These events include: death, divorce, disability, unemployment, issues with children, and mounting stress. I offer counseling to assist individuals and families in coping with these life experiences along with helping them develop new strategies for successful living. My primary focus in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is aimed at teaching the individual or family how to become healthier and experience a more satisfying, fulfilling lifestyle by modifying certain thought and behavior patterns.
Through the counseling process, we will: Accurately identify the source of the conflict/crisis; Identify contributing factors; Develop an action plan; Determine if additional resources or referrals are indicated; Explore options for problem resolution; Identify strategies to be implemented; Learn to apply these strategies; Return to a peaceful, successful lifestyle
I have provided counseling services for over 25 years. The scope of my experience includes design and implementation of employee assistance programs nationally; counseling individuals and families through conflict and crisis in partnership with social service agencies, networks and colleagues focused on outcome based problem and crisis resolution.
