My approach to counseling includes strength-based, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and exposure and response prevention. I customize my therapeutic approach based on each individual's strengths and needs.
My areas of practice include:
- Adjustment issues- difficulty adjusting to major life changes
- Anxiety disorders
- LGBTQ: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning support
- OCD: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
- Women's Issues- including pregnancy, postpartum issues, and traumatic birth
- Counseling sessions typically last around 50 minutes and the frequency is determined for the specific needs of each client: weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly.
- I will make my best attempt to schedule sessions within three to four weeks of when you call to schedule an initial appointment.
- If you are unable to attend your session, you must give 24 hour notice or you will be responsible for a cancellation fee. Leaving a message on my voice mail is acceptable. If you do not attend your session and do not notify me 24 hours in advance, you will be responsible for a fee. Please respect my time as appointments are time that I have reserved specifically for you.
- I follow the Waterloo School District policy regarding weather delays and cancellations: if school is cancelled due to poor driving conditions, I typically close the office for that day. The school district broadcasts delays and cancellations on TV, radio, or on the internet. I will also contact clients if the office needs to be closed for any reason and post scheduling updates in the Important Messages tab found at the top of this page. In the summer, you can contact me to confirm appointments if there are severe weather conditions.
What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
