LPCC, 5 years of experience
I work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, and substance use. During our initial sessions, we will examine the issues that led to you seeking services, collaborate on developing a treatment plan to address these concerns, so you can get back on track. Many of my clients see a decrease of symptoms within the first month and this helps them through the process moving forward.
During the first session, I am there to build rapport, assess what brought you into services and collaborate on your care.
I have an understanding of many issues in my total of 17 years of experience. I have great empathy for people.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. In your first session, we will discuss what brought you to therapy and focus on the ways to help you progress forward. With CBT, we address how your thoughts affect your emotions. DBT, I can help you find ways to accept yourself, feel safe, and manage your emotions.
I have used CBT with clients for over five years by helping them change their thinking.
