My Approach

All mental health issues are normal human behavior taken to an extreme.  Sometimes they are caused by biological/chemical differences.  Other times they are a reaction to something experienced in life.  I will help you by educating you about your condition and by providing you with tools and techniques to help you minimize its effects on your life.  One part of this process is removing the shame and stigmas that are often placed on people with mental health problems.   Treatment may include helping you decide if medications will be beneficial for you.  (Note: I do not have a medical degree and cannot prescribe medications.  I do work in concert with those that can.)
