LCSW, 14 years of experience
New to Grow
I have worked with adults for over 14 years in the areas of anxiety, depression, hoarding, death, dying, and aging in both a clinical and medical setting. I specialize in a unique blend of psychotherapy and exercise-integrated therapy to support adults facing depression, anxiety, stress, or life transitions. With an empathetic, client-centered approach, I create a safe, collaborative space to help you explore your emotions and achieve your goals. My tailored strategies, incorporating thoughtful reflection, and physical activity, empower you to foster lasting mental and emotional well-being. I'm here to guide you on your journey with compassion and personalized care.
In your first session clients can expect a warm, welcoming, environment where they feel safe to share their thoughts and emotions. I will begin by building rapport, discussing their reasons for seeking therapy, and exploring your goals. My client-centered approach will be evident as I listen empathetically and ask thoughtful, reflective questions to understand their needs deeply. Clients may also experience my unique integrations of exercise and psychotherapy, with gentle encouragement to explore how physical activity could support their mental health. By the end of the session you will have a clear sense of my collaborative style, a personalized plan for moving forward, and a foundations of trust to support their therapeutic journey.
As a therapist, I feel like my strengths lie in my empathetic and client-centered approach, fostering a safe space for emotional exploration and growth. My unique integrations of exercise into psychotherapy sets me apart, leveraging physical activity to enhance mental well-being particularly for clients dealing with depression, anxiety, or stress. My ability to tailor thoughtful, reflective questions and practical strategies, combined with my commitment to collaboration and professional relationship-building ensures personalized care that empowers clients to achieve long lasting change.
I am best positioned to serve individuals seeking a unique blend of traditional psychotherapy and exercise-integrated therapy to address challenges like depression, anxiety, or stress. My practice, Lone Rock Counseling, is ideal for clients who value a collaborative, empathetic approach and are opened to incorporating physical activity in to their mental health journey. Whether you're navigating life transitions, emotional struggles, or personal growth, I tailor my sessions to empower adults who are motivated to explore both mind and body for lasting well-being.
I feel like an eclectic approach when it comes to treatment modalities. I will start where you are at and together come up with a custom treatment plan to best meet your needs. It maybe a combination of Positive Psychology, and Motivational Interviewing, or just Brief Solution Focused Therapy.
