New to Grow
Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with over a decade of clinical experience. I hold a bachelor's in social work (BSW) from Capital University and a master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from The University of Dayton. In addition to having my LPCC, I also hold a license as a Licensed Social Worker (LSW). I have been in the helping profession for 10+ years.
During our first session, we will focus on getting to know each other. I will ask questions about you such as what brings you to therapy and what would you like to achieve from our time together. In addition, we will go over what you can expect from me.
My greatest strengths that I bring to our sessions is my ability to not just listen, but to also show true empathy. You can expect compassion and constructive feedback during our time together. I will meet you where you are, with no judgement. Just think of me as your human diary.
I am best positioned to serve individuals who are ready to address the concerns that brought them to therapy. Those who need hope and to know that it is okay to feel. I am passionate about creating a safe, warm and supportive environment where you feel comfortable with exploring your thoughts and feelings. My goal is to create a welcoming and nonjudgmental space to empower you, foster personal growth and healing.
