New to Grow
I take a trauma-informed, person-centered approach to therapy incorporating mindfulness throughout the healing process while providing compassionate unbiased, care. My goal is for my clients to feel safe, supported and understood as we work together to build a strong foundation for growth and healing. I believe trauma should be addressed gently and at a pace that feels comfortable for each individual. with nearly 20 years of experience in community mental health, I have worked in a variety of roles ranging from group homes to care management, while earning two Master's Degrees and continuing my commitment to helping others navigate life's challenges.
In a first session, I like to allow clients to have the space to open up about why they have entered into treatment. If they wish to provide deep background information, that is welcome but not necessary. Some questions will be asked for clarification/rapport building.
My communication style is open and non-judgmental, creating a safe space for honest dialogue. I listen with empathy and care, offering support and understanding while being direct and clear when needed to encourage growth, insight, and meaningful progress.
My ideal clients are adults 18+ facing an array of life challenges and mental health issues. Clients looking for help navigating through depression, anxiety or trauma and wanting to build or rebuild their life back. I provide a safe and compassionate space to explore emotions, build coping skills, and foster healing through mindfulness, and trauma informed care to promote growth and resilience.
