Life can oftentimes present experiences to us that we did not envision in our plans. These experiences can become difficult to navigate through when they start to diminish our quality of life. I believe that no matter the life event that takes place, we all can cope or learn to cope effectively through it. I utilize a variety of evidence-based, therapeutic techniques to develop a treatment plan tailored specifically for your needs. We are all different beings, which means that there should not be a “cookie cutter” approach. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 10 years of practical experience. Throughout my career, I have become effective at treating various diagnoses such as depression, anxiety, stress management, women issues, relationship issues, healthy boundary setting, and low self-esteem issues. If you have come to a place in your life where you are ready to reclaim your power, let’s work together! You no longer have to allow past experiences to be the narrator for your present and future self. I look forward to working side by side together to improve your quality of life!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will begin to focus on building rapport and I will gather information that will help us develop goals for treatment together. After I will created a tailored plan for us to work on for our future sessions.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

In therapy, I utilize a variety of evidence-based, therapeutic techniques to develop a treatment plan tailored specifically for your needs. We are all different beings, which means that there should not be a “cookie cutter” approach. Our therapeutic relationship is one of my number one priorities. I believe that a therapist can have the very best skill set and training, however, it’s not effective if there is no trust built in the therapeutic relationship. I take a strengths-based approach that is solution-focused in order to help you utilize previously established healthy skills and build upon them. We will work together to get you the vibrant life you deserve!

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As stated before, our relationship is the most important factor to me. Have you ever met with a therapist and the vibe was just off? How did that make you feel? Most likely, you weren't able to feel comfortable enough to open up to them. Whether this is your first time in therapy or your 5th, I am going to focus on fostering a healthy, therapeutic relationship with you so that we are able to work on achieving your therapeutic goals. We are going to use evidence-based practices in order to help you develop the necessary skill set you need in order to get the quality of life you want so that you can truly live your best life.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
