(she/her)
Hello! My name is Charmaine and I’ve been a licensed clinician for 8 years and a social worker for the past 15! The trust you build with your therapist is the most important factor in developing that relationship and cultivating a space where change can happen. I would love to help you author your own story and gain motivation to make lasting change.
Let’s get to know each other. Tell me your likes, dislikes, what you’re hoping to gain from therapy and what works best for you!
I can build relationships quickly, make you feel at ease and comfortable in my presence.
Willingness to try, to have an open mindset and set realistic goals for themselves.
Motivational interviewing is built on the principle of developing/building that motivation within oneself. As a therapist I will help you to recognize your own values and what motivates you while listening without judgement, providing support and encouragement to help you reach your goals.
