New to Grow
My philosophy focuses mainly on utilizing the components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I believe that our thoughts do influence our behaviors and we are further shaped by our own experiences. I also firmly believe that success is not always met one way. For this reason, I am constantly learning new tools, techniques and strategies to support the clients I serve. We as human beings can be successful if we are able to develop the tools needed to become resilient youth and adults. Building resiliency is about learning that we have the capacity to do things on our own and get through challenging times, no matter what life throws our way. Counseling is not about a therapist telling you what you should do, it is about forming goals and supporting individuals to shape thoughts and behavior to achieve the goals you set out to accomplish. This is not always an easy task, but I can promise I will be in that journey with you by your side each step of the way.
First session is relationship building, information gathering and discussing next steps moving forward. I will take the time to get to know you and answer any questions you may have in order to support informed decisions going forward in the counseling process.
In my practice, I utilize evidence-based practices to support ongoing positive outcomes.
Clients I am best able to serve fall into the age range of 10-18, maybe slightly younger if they are able to work on telehealth. I am well versed in supporting children with a wide variety of needs across this age range. I have clinical knowledge but also work in the education system and can support families with navigating difficulties there as well.
