I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 13+ years of experience in behavioral health. I have a laid-back style, but it is my goal to assist you with finding balance and empowering you to persevere. I provide a genuine, authentic, and non-judgmental approach, and I hope that this keeps you engaged and motivated to seek change in your life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
You can expect to share your reason for seeking therapy, your goals, and how I can support you in reaching their goals. You will be able to ask me questions about my skillset and can expect me to validate your thoughts and feelings.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I utilize a variety of treatment methods with you during our sesions. Some of those methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, concepts from Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), and Solution-Focused Therapy to name a few. Do you have to see it to understand it? No problem! I can have worksheets and other visual resources for you.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strength is helping you identify patterns in your life that may contribute to your distress. I enjoy seeing you growth and when your internal "lightbulb goes off", which signifies a pathway to a new and improved thought process.
