New to Grow
As a licensed mental health counselor, I am dedicated to providing compassionate support to women facing various challenges. I specialize in working with clients dealing with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, life transitions, low self-esteem, and lack of confidence. Particularly, I excel in helping women navigate the complexities of relationships, offering guidance and solace during difficult breakups and the ambiguous grief that often accompanies them. My approach is rooted in providing practical solutions that offer relief while delving into the underlying issues through counseling. I strive to create a safe and nurturing space where clients can explore their emotions, discover their strengths, and ultimately embark on a journey toward healing and empowerment.
During our initial session, clients will complete a comprehensive intake assessment. This assessment allows me to gain a deep understanding of their personal history and current circumstances, enabling me to formulate a diagnosis if necessary and develop a tailored treatment plan that aligns with their treatment goals.
My greatest strengths as a psychotherapist lie in my insight, warmth, and flexibility. I approach therapy with an eclectic mindset, drawing from various therapeutic techniques to meet each client's unique needs. By meeting clients where they are, I create a safe and supportive environment for them to explore their challenges and aspirations. Additionally, my ability to adapt to different situations and clients' individual personalities allows me to build strong therapeutic relationships and foster meaningful progress towards healing and personal growth.
I am best positioned to serve clients who are navigating various challenges such as depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, life transitions, low self-esteem, and lack of confidence. Additionally, I specialize in providing support to clients who are going struggling with life changes. My compassionate approach and expertise makes me particularly effective in helping these clients find relief, gain insight into their issues, and empower them to overcome obstacles on their journey towards healing and personal growth.
Other specialties
I identify as
EMDR
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to help clients process and heal from traumatic or distressing experiences that may continue to impact their emotions, relationships, self-esteem, or nervous system. EMDR can help reduce the emotional intensity connected to painful memories while helping clients develop healthier beliefs about themselves. My approach to EMDR is collaborative, grounding, and paced to ensure clients feel emotionally supported throughout the healing process.
Somatic
I incorporate somatic approaches to help clients better understand how stress, trauma, and emotions are stored within the body. Together, we focus on increasing body awareness, emotional regulation, nervous system support, and reconnecting with a sense of safety within oneself. Somatic work may include grounding techniques, mindfulness, breathwork, and learning how to recognize physical responses connected to emotional experiences.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
In my practice, I offer Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, a practical approach aimed at finding quick, effective solutions to your concerns. We'll focus on your strengths and goals, working together to identify solutions and create a plan for positive change in your life.
