Hello, I am a Licensed Practicing Counselor that works with children and adolescents. I have been proving therapy and guidance to children and adolescents that need additional support. I work with those in need of clearer vision from depression, anxiety, academics and behavior. My professional career in mental health started in the U.S. Navy. I have since worked with private institutions helping those in need of additional supports to overcome obstacles that cloud the path to being their most successful self.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session I will work with clients to get a better understanding of the goal they want to achieve from therapy. Our first session, clients will get to know me and how each session moves from identifying and working towards changing things that are keeping clients from being their best self.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strengths are relatability. I have been working with children and adolescents in multiple capacities from schools to outpatient mental health facilities.
