As a marriage and family therapist we provide mental health services to individuals, couples and families. Our primary style is cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). This style of therapy helps identify, evaluate and change dysfunctional thinking patterns and allows for a new way of thinking along with new behaviors for a more balanced well-being. Each couple, family and individual are unique therefore, other modalities can be utilized. We believe in a joint therapist-client approach to accomplish the goals we set together.
