Individual Counseling

Individual counseling is a collaborative effort between therapist and client. My goal is to provide an open, supportive, and confidential environment for you to address the issues that are concerning you. I will help you take the necessary steps to find resolutions and achieve your goals.

Adolescent Counseling

Adolescence is a pivotal time, encompassing many changes in development. In their striving for independence, many adolescents pull away from their parents, and it becomes a critical time for them to Adolescents benefit from connecting with a supportive adult. I can assist them in self-discovery and awareness. When adolescents are able to process their thoughts and feelings working with me in counseling, they have an improved ability to make healthy and productive choices.

Assessment and Counseling for Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery (laparoscopic gastric banding, gastric bypass) offers patients the opportunity to experience significant weight loss that can be maintained. Unlike traditional diets where risks are low and discontinuation can occur any time, bariatric surgery has inherent risks and requires long-term behavioral changes afterward. Therefore, patients typically are required to complete a thorough evaluation, including psychological assessment, to determine their appropriateness for surgery. Patients also benefit from supportive group and individual counseling post-surgery to maintain health changes in their lives. I work with patients to determine assessment and provide post-procedure counseling to achieve goals.

Clinical Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a treatment that has been used and approved by the American and British Medical Associations for over 60 years. For many people who unsuccessfully try to control or change things through will power, clinical hypnosis can be a very powerful and successful treatment choice. Hypnosis is effective because unlike will power, it works on the sub-conscious mind as well as the conscious mind to target desired goals. Contrary to common myths about hypnosis, you are completely in control during the hypnosis experience. Hypnosis can bring about dramatic changes. Please contact me if you would like more information about hypnosis.

  • Anxiety
  • Performance Anxiety
  • Weight Management
  • Pain Management
