Therapy and Hypnotherapy


I am a licensed clinical social worker who has provided counseling and therapy to children, adults, couples and families for over 20 years. My approach is psychodynamic, meaning I utilize whatever style I feel would be most effective with each individual client and situation. I truly enjoy working with clients of all ages and stages in their lives.  

I also believe that mindfulness and hypnosis can be a very useful tool in psychotherapy.  Hypnotherapy can be used to help treat a wide variety of issues. It can be highly effective in helping alleviate physical, emotional and mental health issues, boosting confidence and self-esteem, dealing effectively with sleep problems, smoking cessation, and weight control issues. Hypnotherapy can also help to enhance performance and achievement in a multitude of disciplines, including business, education and sports, to name but a few. My desire with hypnotherapy is to work collaboratively with you to effectively access your own inner strength and resilience to meet your personal goals. If you choose for hypnotherapy to be a part of our practice together I will make you a recording so that you may begin to work towards your goals outside of my office.

I use psychodynamic therapy, hypnosis, or a combination of the two in order to help you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your concerns so that you are empowered to make positive changes in your life.

I have had the privilege of working with individuals of all ages, genders, races and income levels.

anxiety
