Services

I am a culturally sensitive therapist and engage diverse individuals, couples, families, and groups, with my belief that cultural, racial, religious, gender, and sexual identities interact with and are very likely a vital component of one’s beliefs and behavior. I work with clients from ages 14 and older (some exceptions) with anxiety disorders, depression,  trauma, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, substance-related disorders, eating disorders, negative self-concept, difficulty moving forward personally or professionally, relationship concerns, and varied cognitive and behavioral conditions, as well as the trauma associated with oppression, injustices, and racism.

Using a variety of approaches, I guide you by helping you process your thinking and behavior; understand your self-perceptions; identify effective ways to best fit in your environments, while maintaining your true self; and work toward immediate short-range and long-range personal and professional goals.

 

Telehealth Therapy

This delivery system provides all the following services through the use of interactive audio and video technology, permitting real-time communication between the client and therapist for the purpose of consultation, diagnosis, and treatment. Using Zoom and/or cellular or landline connections, clients may engage in the services provided, from the comfort of their homes, offices, or various locations as determined appropriate by clients and clinician, always with the commitment to protect client privacy and confidentiality.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

This approach focuses on identifying both the thoughts and behaviors that are causing distress, and changing those thoughts in order to readjust the behavior.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy

This approach focuses on learning skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and the practice of mindfulness.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

This approach focuses on diminishing or resolving the effects of trauma and anxiety by combining dual attention to traumatic memory and back-and-forth eye movements, alternating sounds, or vibrations (bilateral stimulation).

Scripture-Based Therapy

This approach focuses on the knowledge and information in the Bible as it relates to human thinking, behavior, and need and helps clients learn how to deal with problems scripturally.

Strength-Based Therapy

This approach focuses on the client’s inherent strengths and builds on them to aid in recovery and empowerment.

Solution Focused Brief Therapy
