First session
In our first session I would like to get to know you and and learn what you would like to work on. It will be causal and laid back. My goal is to get to know you and develop rapport. Rapport between a therapist and a client is crucial to a successful therapeutic relationship.
Strengths
My greatest strength as a provider may be my ability to form rapport fairly quickly. Another strength I have is the ability to assess quickly while making adequate diagnoses. I also consider myself as an eclectic therapist meaning I use different ideas, styles and diverse modalities.
Ideal clients
I'm looking for clients who are ready to trust the process, do the work, and invest in themselves for the long haul. If you're ready for meaningful change - not just a quick fix - I'd love to work with you. I enjoy working with teens and young adults as they are transitioning from adolescence to adulthood. Teens and young adults are becoming more independent, and begin to look at the future in terms of college, career, relationships, families, housing and so on. During this period, teen and young adults explore possibilities and begin to form their own identities .
