In my practice I provide therapy for couples, individuals, families and groups in Colorado Springs, CO. My approach to treatment, whether with an individual, couple, family, or group, is to teach the necessary skills for clients to alleviate immediate distress and to effectively solve the problems at hand, as well as to focus on underlying principles guiding their actions and behaviors. I believe both elements are essential for long term satisfaction and effectiveness in creating a meaningful life.
As I work with my clients, I evaluate mental and emotional aspects of their lives, assess for biological/physiological areas that may be contributing to distress, and consider which social influences - immediate and extended family members, work/school, religious, community and societal - play a role in their current state of being.
My work is collaborative, in that my clients and I together set treatment goals and the timeline for therapy. I give home assignments after each session to encourage steady progress towards goals and to assist in creating and maintaining necessary change.
