INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
Whatever your imbalance is, the goal of the individual therapy is GROWTH, EMPOWERMENT, and increasing your EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EQ). Whether it is anxiety, depression, addiction, heartache, low sense of self, etc. - we will work as a team to get very clear on what is happening inside of you, get specific on your goals and desires, and then develop a specific regimen designed just for what you need. The Overall Goal: Creating your own Emotional Regimen™ designed around the concept of Internal and External Self-Care and Proactive and Reactive Self-Care.
WHAT IS INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL SELF-CARE?
I always tell my clients that if there is one thing I want them to get from their counseling is the ability to do Internal Self-Care.
INTERNAL SELF-CARE: This is you, just you, within your own mind and body, taking care of yourself. This is empowerment and trust within yourself to provide yourself with whatever is needed when you are riding a triggered wave.
EXTERNAL SELF-CARE: This is what you do AFTER attempting some Internal Self-Care. It is simply going outside of yourself for support, whether it is asking for help, making a request, or just wanting to vent.
WHAT IS REACTIVE AND PROACTIVE SELF-CARE?
It is simple: REACTIVE self-care is taking care of yourself when you are triggered in any given moment. Being able to make the You-Turn and use your tools to self-regulate.
PROACTIVE self-care is taking care of yourself in a proactive way. This is one of the key benefits of an Emotional Regimen™ - you take care of your emotions every day, even when you feel awesome. Do you stop exercising just because you feel healthy? Take care of your emotions just as you would your body!

As my children grow, so do I as a mother and a therapist. I am clear on one thing: it is never too early to start building a strong foundation of self-confidence within your child. I specialize in helping kids of all ages to learn a sense of self-care and self-trust, so they can increase their street smarts and emotional intelligence.
