In my career spanning over 20 years, 12 of those years have been as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Mental Health Service Provider focusing on outpatient behavioral health. I like to inform clients, that like all humans, I am far from perfect even though I am on the other side of the desk with the answers and knowledge. This helps to build rapport and allows authentic and vulnerable conversations to occur through my nonjudgmental eyes, open minded thoughts, being a great listener, providing honesty, and direct feedback.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I will meet you where you are at, whether that is a first time client to therapy or a believer in the process of therapy and has been in therapy prior. We will discuss what brings you currently to treatment and create therapy goals for me to guide/assist you on your emotional health journey.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked over 20 years in the field of mental health in different environments ( in-patient, out-patient, domestic violence shelters, eating disorder units, non profit organizations, community service boards, EAP, and specialty areas: children, veterans, anxiety, and grief) has exposed me to all levels of care, departments, and programs which craft my knowledge and experience to best help guide and provide resources to my clients.
