LCSW, 15 years of experience
Hello! I am a licensed and experienced therapist and love what I do. I strive to provide a warm and empathetic environment for my clients. I truly enjoy getting to know you and in building a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. With a compassionate approach, I desire to explore and listen to your concerns, thoughts and feelings without judgement. I hope to allow my clients to find healing, increase in self-awareness, personal growth and lasting change. Facing life's challenges and struggles can feel overwhelming at times. I believe that each of us has the inner strength and potential to face and work through their pain and overcome obstacles. It takes immense courage to seek out help and support. I am here with you in whatever situation you are facing, to find hope, healing and growth.
The process of finding a therapist can be overwhelming and you may feel nervous or uncertain, and that is okay. I am happy to walk you through the process and to answer any questions you may have. In our first session together, we will do introductions, go over some of you history and reasons for seeking therapy.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience. My perspective comes from a combined experience as a Clinical Therapist and from working as a health educator. I understand how personal experiences, past and present can impact ones emotional health and overall well-being. I am dedicated to journey with you through this process and look forward to connecting with you.
I provide individual counseling services for adults with a client-centered approach and treatment plan. I specialize in Stress Management, Self Esteem, Chronic illness and Grief and Loss. Whether you are dealing with symptoms of depression or anxiety, work stressors or life events, I desire to provide support, healing and empowerment through this process.
By creating a safe and non-judgemental space, my goal is to encourage clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, values, and aspirations, and develop a healthy sense of self.
