From the first session, we help you get clarity about how to move forward and start feeling better. We are smart, compassionate, thoughtful/active listeners. Ellen, David and I are experienced and use several modalities (CADC, EMDR, CBT, ACT, etc)
discuss what you would like to focus on. We can talk about your thoughts, needs, manage urges, strengthen empowerment, & create healthy boundaries. Together we can approach concerns with curiosity & construct a life in where you love & want to live.

I focus on Strength Based approaches that will at times incorporate CBT, DBT, ACT, Harm Reduction, as well as assisting with providing education. We discuss goals, barriers & developing boundaries. All evidence based practices and interventions.
