I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Registered Play Therapist with extensive training and experience in evidence based practices for the treatment of anxiety and OCD related issues in adults and children. I am also extensively trained in couples counseling. My approach to counseling includes, a thorough assessment of the presenting problem, educating the client about the dynamics that contribute to the development and maintenance of the problem, and providing highly effective treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) that help clients develop strategies and skills to manage and find relief from the symptoms of anxiety. As an adjunct to my work with anxiety disorders, I also provide parent coaching and couples counseling utilizing the Relational Life Therapy Model.
