Find a Therapist in Glendale, Colorado.

I work from an attachment based perspective and hold the beliefs that we are products of our upbringing and relationships. I believe we are shaped through our experiences and this plays a vital role in how we operate in relationships in the present as well as the vision we hold for our future. Each person is unique in their story and their personality and experience combine provides a unique formation of their present. I work within the context of animal-assisted psychotherapy to work with attachment, bonding, and acceptance and love.

Psychotherapy has numerous approaches but its root is communication between the client and the therapist. When communicating with children and teens, I get down to their level and speak their language which builds a trusting , safe and non- judgmental environment. My approaches varies depending on the need of the child /teen and where they are developmental. I have found working with children and teens many of them have some of the same issues. Some problems that have helped children and teens reduce or eliminate are; * low self esteem * choosing healthy friendships * aggressive behaviors * problem solving difficult situations * building better relationships with parents /caregivers

Psychotherapy is a broad term. In general, I take a wellness based approach to therapy. Together, we will identify what you see as resources within yourself and your social/family network and help you develop sustainable skills for coping with challenges you encounter. You will leave treatment understanding yourself and your strengths better than you did before, and confidence in the knowledge that you can cope with whatever lies ahead.
