Approach to Counseling
I am a
trained marriage, family and individual therapist. My approach
to counseling is based on “family systems” theory which
emphasizes problem-solving therapy within the context of the
family-of-origin, the marital family and the social system. I
have had 31 years experience as a special education teacher and
counselor for the Salem-Keizer School District working
with handicapped and difficult children. I have a particular
emphasis on helping parents access resources and develop
appropriate parenting skills. As well as family systems theory,
I also use cognitive-behavioral and solution focused therapy. I
have worked with children with mental health issues and my
particular areas of emphasis are marriage and family counseling,
children and adolescents, ADHD, and adoption issues. I am a
member of Salem Alliance Church.
