First session
The first session will include introductions, review of intake paperwork, limits and responsibilities, but will prioritize the client’s description of their current challenges and support needs. Therapeutic fit will be determined and an initial plan created.
Strengths
Through 20 + years of experience in mental health counseling, I most value practicing a mindful and curious approach to supporting the mental health and well-being of my clients. Together we practice observing and processing thoughts, feelings and behavior to access and inform healthier choices and achievable goals. We do this through discussion, guided relaxation, mindfulness, and varied expressive modalities including, but not limited to; movement, drama, visual art, writing, reading and music.
Ideal clients
I am best positioned to serve client’s who are highly motivated to learn more about their values and goals and will actively apply their strengths and practice new skills toward realizing their goals.
