So many of us feel like we struggle every day to survive through life. We might feel lost, unhappy, stressed or exhausted from constant overthinking or self-doubts. We go through the motions and cant seem to find as many enjoyable moments as we'd like or we cant figure out our purpose. Finding and accepting yourself is not always an easy task and sometimes we all need a little help or guidance. That's where I come in. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience in the mental health and social work field. I have worked in many different settings helping people in all different walks of life. I've provided services over the years to ensure my clients basic needs are met, to feel better about themselves, and to manage their symptoms and emotions. Through personalized counseling services that are built on a foundation of empathy, strength and acceptance, we will walk this path together to embrace your true self and the life you want to live.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our sessions together, I want you to feel welcome and give you a safe place to express yourself. I want to guide you through figuring out your specific goals, and finding self-acceptance and compassion. To start, I'll briefly explain my therapy practice and go over important information and policies. I can then answer any questions you have about my education, experience or treatment methods. We can also discuss what future sessions will look like. From there, we'll talk about what you are experiencing in your life and what you have experienced in the past. The focus of our first session is to figure out if I'm the right therapist for you and to identify your goals for therapy. You are the writer of your own story and I will do everything that I can to help you write one that you find enjoyable and worth living.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Over the years I've strengthened my ability to understand and empathize with many different perspectives. This helps me to help my clients feel comfortable and not judged. My biggest strength is being authentic and real with my clients and being able to understand their perspectives. I want you to feel accepted for who you are. My approach is direct and I wont fill our sessions with fluff or nonsense. I value the time and work you put into yourself and happiness.
