TREATMENT OF PERSISTENT MENTAL HEALTH CONDITIONS & PSYCHIATRIC REHABILITATION

In the last 12 years I have specialized in treating individuals who experience acute and persistent mental health conditions with an expertise in the treatment of:

• Depessive Disorders
• Anxiety Disorders
• Bipolar Disorders
• Schizophrenia
• Schizoaffective Disorder

I provide comprehensive and continuous individual-centered therapy to help clients manage their mental health condition successfully and attain meaningful life goals. My therapy sessions foster an active process through which individuals gain increased insight about their condition, acquire and practice healthy coping skills for managing it, and work toward achieving their set goals.

I also work closely with families whose loved ones experience persistent psychiatric conditions in order to achieve the best possible recovery outcomes for their son, daughter, husband, wife, etc. In this partnership, family members learn valuable coping skills for handling the issues posed by mental illness in their family and to support the recovery process of their loved one.

Additionally, I offer support groups to families coping with their loved one’s newly diagnosed or ongoing psychiatric disorder. Groups are small and typically comprised of 4-6 family members.

My treatment approach is one of collaboration with the individual’s natural supports and significant treatment providers. These include treating psychiatrists, so that therapy compliments and supports the individual recovery process of each client. Through the tools they gain in therapy, my clients are empowered to overcome any barriers imposed by their mental health condition, preserve their strengths and to actualize the life goals they set for themselves.
