I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience treating a wide variety of mental health issues including, but not limited to, addiction, mood disorders (depression, anxiety), psychosis, adjustment disorder, and PTSD. In addition to individual counseling, I am also proficient in family and couples therapy. In both individual and couples/family counseling, I work with clients to build insight and to develop a greater understanding of self in order to improve current circumstances and/or work towards identified treatment goals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My intent is for clients to feel supported, listened to, and understood during sessions. As we are able to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship, clients can expect sessions to be a safe and non-judgmental space.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
As every client is unique, the approach to treatment will differ from person to person. I utilize evidence-based treatment methods including CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered therapy; I also believe a trusting therapeutic relationship is the foundation of mental health treatment.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Though as expressed above I have experience with a wide variety of mental health diagnoses, I specialize in addiction treatment (i.e. SOAP) as well as couples and family therapy.
