LCSW, 23 years of experience
New to Grow
First and foremost, I am a wife and mother. I have real life experiences that can relate to people. I have been treating clients for 25 years. I use real life, practical coping skills to help clients in real life situations. I have worked in community based centers, schools and therapeutic individuatal settings. These experiences allow me to have a clear, rounded understanding of people and their life situations.
Clients can expect a real person on the other end of the computer screen. I have therapy experience to back my credentials, but often people just want to be heard. Hopefully, after the first session, you will feel that I am able to hear you.
I have a Christian background. I can approach therapy along those lines, but I am open to many other modalities. If looking for a Biblical basis, I can help in that way, but also can clinically assist you.
My main goal is to help clients that want to feel better about themselves and their situations. I love it when clients are able to shift their mindset to a more productive and positive outlook.
I use CBT to foster practical, sustainable change by empowering clients with tools and insights they can carry forward in their daily lives
I help partners better understand and shift the thought and behavior patterns that negatively impact their relationship.
