I have been working in the Mental Health field since 2016 when I graduated with my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have had opportunities to work with underserved populations of all ages in Substance Abuse Treatment, before transitioning to work with youth and families in the community. I have worked with youth and families for over 5 years helping youth, parents and families in crisis, as well as helping parents learn to navigate the world of developmental diagnoses.
The first session typically consists of gathering information and defining goals for therapy services. This is often the space where the client is able to ask questions and what to expect throughout services.
I find that my strengths include the ability to create a safe space and strong therapeutic relationship so clients can talk and work through struggles. I often challenge clients to help facilitate the work that can be done in between sessions, and help clients identify appropriate goals to work towards. Having worked with families in the past, I am able to see clients across the lifespan in individual, family and couples therapy.
I utilize several approaches to meet the needs of clients. I approach sessions in a solution focused, strengths based manner. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a client centered approach that allows the client to think outside the box, identify changes, and implement these changes. Having worked with children and families, I have experience in a variety of modalities. At times a family needs to work through relationship issues, in which I am able to help create a safe space for families to heal.
