Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based in Ohio. I received my Master in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Youngstown State University and have been practicing for 6 years. I enjoy helping people of all ages deal with and manage a variety of mental health issues and daily stressors to become the best version of themselves. I look forward to getting to know you!
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, build rapport, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me gather a plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with individuals the past 5 years, I've developed a wide variety of ways to help people through a multitude of life concerns/ issues. Utilize active listening to provide space for individuals to express their thoughts and feelings.
I love working with people of all ages that want to help themselves thrive, focus on their needs and become their ideal self.
