Areas of Competence

Competence in counseling and psychosocial intervention without supervision with children, adolescents, adults, geriatrics, families, and groups.

Specializing in the areas of adjustment disorder, mood disorder, anxiety problems, grief and loss issues, stress and relationship issues.

Motivation for change is a primary component of the counseling process. Also each client is unique, but the counseling process itself seems to be predictable, with a beginning, a middle, and end; or for some clients a long term process where their are multiple complicating factors which can shift the treatment goals.

Clients come to counseling, or psychotherapy, usually with a specific need or issue that is causing sufficient concern such that they are seeking help with resolving the distress they are feeling. Some clients are quite capable of articulating their need and goal--others are less able to define the emotional state they are feeling. Either way, counseling can be beneficial in identifying the problem or problems and what expectations they have of resolving the problem.
