Individual
Therapy
Individual Therapy is specifically focused on what you need to grow and thrive as an individual and in all your roles in life. Different approaches are used such as Cognitive-Behavioral, Strengths-Based, and Interpersonal.
Neuro-Emotional Technique
NET is a psychosomatic stress reduction intervention aimed at emotional and physical health improvement.
Contact Reflex Analysis
CRA focuses helps get the energy flowing properly through your body.
My Approach
My experience includes young children through adults, as well as working with families.
Currently, I offer Nero-Emotional Technique and Contact Reflex Analysis which use applied Kinesiology to help I also provide faith-based counseling. My faith is Christianity and this is encorporated into my faith-based counseling, however, this is never pushed onto clients.
I also offer NET, Neuro-Emotional Technique to help people who feel "stuck " in relational and life situations.

How does Therapy work?
Therapy allows you the ability to process information and life experiences and receive both positive and challenging feedback to reach the goals you have set.
Therapy sessions are client driven and goal oriented. We will follow a treatment plan, which we will form together throughout the first couple of sessions. Throughout the sessions, we will focus on your relationships, lifestyle, behaviors and your spiritual life. We will also identify and build on your existing coping skills and positive social support network.
Therapy is led by the client and, therefore, will be work for you. Just keep in mind that hard work pays off!
