PSYCHOTHERAPY |
"There is no greater pain than the estrangement from ones' true self" author unknown | ||||
| PHILOSOPHY: I operate primarily from the Gestalt perspective, although I continually integrate other healing principles into my work. The most prominent one involves the role our thoughts/beliefs/feelings play in manifesting our "reality" & creating our future, as suggested by the new discoveries in Quantum physics. | |||||
|
TRAINING: Since 1990, I have trained therapists & clients on Anger, Fear, Shame & working with Trauma & Addiction. |
|||||
| EDUCATION: I graduated from Slippery Rock University in 1987 with a BS in Psychology & a BS in Information Science & received my Masters in Counseling (MSEd) in 1991 from Duquesne University. I completed my post graduate training in Gestalt Methods from the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland in 1999. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) & a Certified Addictions Counselor (CAC). | |||||
| EXPERIENCE: I worked for Gateway Rehab Center from 1987 until 2000, where I gained extensive experience working with groups, individuals & families. In 1995, I opened my Private Practice, which became full time in 2000. I value the diversity in private practice; working with the uniqueness inherent in each individual is both captivating & fulfilling to me. My caseload is comprised primarily with individuals & couples, & I have great interest in group therapy as well. | |||||
| FEE: I do not participate in any insurance networks, but a few of my clients have been creative in seeking partial reimbursement for therapy (out-of-network benefits, HSA's & FSA's). My fee is $80 for a 50 minute session. | |||||
