I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist with a variety of mental health experience. I have worked as an outpatient therapist for 15 years and in the mental health field for 30 years. I work with clients from a strengths based approach to improve self care and self growth. To lessen effects of depression and anxiety. To build from a person centered approach to improve healthy coping and healthy functioning.
The first session is to focus on why you are seeking help and how i can best help. We will talk through some of your experiences that lead you to counseling and determine what you feel you try ready to begin working on or working through.
My greatest strengths is my ability to listen without judgement, meet people where they are at and build a plan and foundation to work on.
The focus of treatment is to define goals where YOU want to make improvements in your life. To focus on healthy strategies to incorporate into your daily living. To remove negative experiences and build on healthy coping skills and self care.
