Hi, I'm a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida. I received my masters in clinical mental health counseling from Denver Seminary. I have 7 years of experience as a therapist in a variety of treatment contexts including the educational system (K-12 and university), private practice, community based mental health, and outpatient substance abuse treatment. Through these opportunities I have gained an exceptional ability to build a strong therapeutic rapport with clients from diverse walks of life and a proficiency in providing evidence based treatment for a wide range of clinical issues. I find it deeply meaningful to support individuals towards well-being, relational healing, and empowerment.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together we'll review your intake paperwork which helps me better understand your personal history, strengths, values and challenges. We'll have time to discuss what is bothering you and what you hope to change.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I utilize evidence based treatments within cognitive behavioral therapy, including acceptance based behavioral therapies, assertiveness training, and exposure based activities.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I thrive in being able to create safety in sharing, connection in being seen and understood, and assistance in helping people more fully express their experiences in life.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I commonly work with young adults who are seeking support for social anxiety and other relationship challenges, life adjustments, and spiritual support in exploring the intersection of their mental health and their faith. I love helping young adults find their voice and begin carving out their authentic path into adulthood.
