I am an LCSW based out of Virginia. I have worked with various populations to include teenagers ranging from severe mental illness to future growth and planning; adults with severe mental illness, couples, mild-severe depression and anxiety, family issues, and motivational struggles. I am solution focused and my goal it to help you get where you want to be!
In our first session we will get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. We will discuss what has or has not worked in the past and I will discuss my own approach. We will make sure we are a good fit and make a plan for how best to move forward.
I have worked with people on all levels with varying struggles. I accept where you are and help you to develop where you want to be. I can help you to identify struggles and your strengths to make progress.
I help to identify and restructure negative thinking patterns and behaviors while building coping skills to better handle stressors.
I use strengths based motivational interviewing to find out where you want to be and create a strategy to motivate you forward into positive change.
