I am a licensed Mental Health Therapist who has been working with families and individuals for the past 15 years. I want to be able to assist my clients in recognizing that they have the power to change by exploring and understanding their feelings. I have worked with families focusing on improving parent-child relationships, parenting, co-parenting, divorce, financial hardship, depression, caregiver to aging adults etc.
Clients can expect for me to create a non-judgmental environment where they openly share their experience and challenges they are currently experiencing.
My greatest strength is being able to engage in active listening and validating the client's emotional state. I also work with the client to discover their own strengths that they can utilize in problem solving.
Clients who a ready to commit to the therapeutic process and open to a different approach and perspective into their current situation.
I allow the client to lead the session. My role in providing CBT is to assist the in identifying how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are all connected. This approach will assist the client in understanding their situation and respond to them more effectively.
