With over 40 years experience as a therapist in private practice my office has been on the top floor of the New England Building in Winter Park since 1984. Originally, I worked in social service agencies and hospitals and then transitioned into private practice specializing in therapy for Wellness Issues. I currently work with clients dealing with a wide range of issues to help them improve their overall mental and physical health and satisfaction in life. Most clients seek therapy to fix a problem. My practice encourages clients to go beyond fixing problems to change their lifestyle which ensures their ability to maintain new skills. My Wellness Study Groups which promote a healthier and more satisfied lifestyle are the focus of my practice. Many people now see joining a fitness center as a welcome addition to a healthy physical lifestyle. Joining a Wellness Study Group is a way to maintain overall mental health. Clients are supported and encouraged in the company of their peers. Participating in a Wellness Study Group sets up a structure of accountability that keeps clients focused and on track to meet their goals.
As a psychoeducational therapist, my therapeutic approach
encourages clients to actively participate and take responsibility for their choices in
their own process. I give handouts and follow-up
exercises to complete between sessions. I provide unconditional
support and direct and practical feedback to help clients effectively
address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary
methodologies and techniques to offer an individualized
approach personalized for each client. With compassion and
understanding, I work with each client to help them build on their
strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to
accomplishing.
