![]() My job is to help you put words to the confusing and knotted mess we sometimes feel inside. You are the expert when it comes to your pain, sadness, or overwhelm. Mental health and therapy are personal and should be custom tailored to your needs, experiences, and life. Together, we will work to develop the tools and skills you need to heal and recover in the manner you choose. If you have identified a need for support to help sort through the unmanageable in your life and would like a collaborative partner in the process, come talk with me. I will help you explore issues and develop solutions in a safe and supportive environment. Being collaborative, I am able to tailor treatment to styles and modalities that fit your needs such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Processing of Trauma. I believe in providing a collaborative and strengths-based approach when creating treatment goals and areas of focus for recovery. In my 11 years in the social work field, I have provided these services in an office, community, hospital, and residential setting. In addition to individual therapy, I have experience providing family and group therapies. ![]() Through my experience as a mental health and addictions counselor, I have had the pleasure of working with adults and teens who are working toward recovery of addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. I have a personal mantra to help others see their value, dignity, and worth. We all have strengths, and I am here to help you acknowledge them as you begin to heal and grow in the direction you choose. I strive to create a safe and supportive space for the healing process. People will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya AngelouĪs a therapist, I believe that the space in which you heal is of great importance. Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, Philadelphia, PA.“People will forget what you said. Lorian 5 th edition, Chapter 9 (2005) Antimicrobial Combinations, in Antibiotics In Laboratory Medicine, pp. The concentrations of Compounds A and B in well D6 resulted in a synergistic effect (FIC < 0.5), while in well C7 the effect was additive or indifference (FIC = 0.5-4). The growth control (well H12) is depicted as a yellow circle with bolded outline. In this illustration, “no growth” is represented by white circles, and “growth” is represented by yellow circles. These controls are used to determine the MIC value for each test compound, which in turn are used to calculate the FIC value using the formula listed above, and then assessed for synergism, additive/indifference, or antagonism. Column 12 contains a serial dilution of Compound B alone, while row H contains a serial dilution of Compound A alone. Columns 1 to 11 contain 2-fold serial dilutions of Compound A, and rows A to G contain 2-fold serial dilutions of compound B. ![]() Synergy Checkerboard Assay. Depicted here is a typical synergy checkerboard assay setup. This assay can also determine whether the combination is bacteriostatic or bactericidal.īelow is a representation of a checkerboard assay where the synergistic activity of two antibiotics, A and B was determined. The synergy time kill-kinetic assay can determine how the combination of compounds affects the bacteria during the growth cycle by determining the rate of killing of the compounds. Synergy time-kill kinetic assays can be performed to further characterize the synergy observed in the microdilution assay. Synergy: When the combination of compounds result in an FIC value of 4, the combination of compounds increases the MIC, or lowers the activity of the compounds. ![]()
