Portrait Health Centers
Portrait Health Centers are multi-specialty clinics that employ the most cutting-edge and proven assessment protocols and treatment options available, believing that an Effective Treatment Depends On An Accurate Diagnosis. Individuals should not have to “play doctor” by researching available treatments and then self-selecting which of these treatments has been scientifically validated and would be most appropriate for themselves or their family. At Portrait Health Centers, we provide a comprehensive and multi-specialty assessment to determine the underlying causes of your symptoms and incorporate an appropriate treatment plan.

In addition to the required coursework, I completed an in-depth seminar in Obesity and Eating Disorders as well as workshops in Play Therapy and Treating Child Trauma.

I work with children, teens, and adults to reach their treatment goals as well as cope with any issues they may face within a safe and accepting therapeutic environment. I have experience working with children, teens, and young adults with severe co-occurring disorders in a psychiatric residential treatment facility.

I use a combination of theories, including but not limited to; CBT, DBT, Behavior Therapy, Play Therapy, Art Therapy, Trauma Focused, Person-Centered Psychotherapy, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. I base my treatment approach on what works best for each individual client as well as what the current research shows is the best evidenced-based treatment for the presenting issue. I use a collaborative approach; we will work together to utilize your strengths to develop a treatment plan and goals that best fit your needs.

In addition to counseling, I enjoy spending time with my husband and son, playing with my dog, cuddling my cat on the couch, listening to a variety of music, camping, fishing, and painting.
