| about me . . . |
| I
have been a counselor in private practice since 1998.
I specialize in relationship issues, codependency, depression,
anxiety, eating disorders, and couples counseling.
I work with all adults and with female adolescents.
I received my
Masters degree in Counseling from Arizona State University in 1994, and
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor by the State of Arizona Board of
Behavioral Health Examiners [#LPC-1686]. Through
the counseling relationship, I assist clients in areas such as:
increasing self-esteem, finding self-acceptance, making relationship
decisions, healing depression and anxiety, learning good communication
skills with your partner, and overcoming eating disorders. At
your first session you can expect me to ask you the main reason you
decided to seek counseling. Then,
I will ask numerous questions to help get an overall picture of what you
are struggling with. At the
end of the session, I will recommend a “next step” and ask if you
are in agreement. From
there, we will either set up an additional appointment if you wish to
continue counseling or I will assist you by giving you a referral.
