I am a psychotherapist who excels at connecting with people and making them feel at ease. I approach therapy as an interactive process and enjoy working with individuals to develop a plan that works for them. I believe it is a privilege to sit with people who allow me to bear witness to their lives, stressors, and pain. I believe in embracing the "and" that life often presents, helping clients to appreciate and tolerate that we often experience conflicting emotions simultaneously. I work with adults 18 + on a variety of issues that include:DepressionAnxietyInterpersonal relationshipsWork or school stressDeath or loss of a loved oneSeparation or divorceChronic pain or illnessBeing a survivor of abuse or crimeUndergoing a major life change (such as getting married, having a baby, moving or changing jobs, etc.)I also specialize in suicide prevention, intervention and postvention, and working with survivors of suicide loss. I have extensive training in helping people who are struggling with thoughts of suicide or who are concerned about a friend or family member. Loss of a loved one to suicide is a unique, overwhelming and at times isolating experience. I offer support, comfort and understanding as you traverse your grief. I look forward to working with you!For more information please see my website at: WWW.ASHARPETHERAPY.COMModality: IndividualOrientation: Cognitive Behavioral (CBT),Interpersonal, Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Client Centered approach.Specialties: Depression, Anxiety or Fears, Relationship issues,Chronic Pain or Illness, Divorce, Domestic Abuse or Violence, Loss or Grief, Survivor of Suicide Loss, Parenting, Trauma and PTSD
