As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor, and trained EMDR therapist, I'm here to support you on your journey to healing and self-improvement. My approach is tailored to help you overcome various challenges, including: • Current or past trauma • Depression • Anxiety • Suicidal thoughts/Self Harm • Other mental health concerns Together, we'll work towards addressing your unique needs and helping you become the best version of yourself. I look forward to our initial session and the opportunity to guide you on this transformative journey.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Taking care of your mental health is just as important as looking after your physical well-being, yet it's often overlooked in our busy lives. If you're reading this, you've already taken a brave step towards prioritizing your emotional wellness - and that's something to be proud of. Seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. During your initial session, we will work towards building a close rapport, gather some historical information, identify and create treatment objectives that may be centered around decreasing maladaptive behaviors, crisis management, stabilization and life worth living goals. Whether you're dealing with everyday stress or facing more complex challenges, considering therapy is a positive choice that many people make to invest in themselves and their relationships. Let's work together to break down the stigma surrounding mental health, build a trusting relationship, and create a path towards a happier, healthier you.
