As a licensed mental health counselor and lead analyst with extensive experience since 2017, I specialize in behavioral therapy, employing evidence-based techniques to address a wide range of mental health concerns. Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in various settings, including private practice, outpatient clinics, and inpatient hospitals, gaining invaluable insights into the complexities of human behavior and the nuances of therapeutic interventions. My dedication to providing comprehensive support is underscored by my commitment to tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of each client. Through empathetic listening and collaborative exploration, I strive to create a therapeutic alliance built on trust and mutual respect. By incorporating elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and other modalities, I work alongside clients to develop personalized treatment plans aimed at fostering resilience and facilitating meaningful change. Whether guiding individuals through the process of self-discovery, assisting couples in navigating relationship challenges, or supporting families in enhancing communication and cohesion, I am deeply invested in helping clients navigate life's complexities and achieve their therapeutic goals. My approach is characterized by compassion, authenticity, and a steadfast commitment to empowering clients to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the first session with me as your mental health counselor, clients can expect a warm and welcoming environment where they are encouraged to share their thoughts, feelings, and concerns in a safe and confidential space. I will take the time to get to know you, understand your background, and gather relevant information about your current situation, including your goals for therapy. Together, we will establish a collaborative working relationship built on trust and mutual respect. I will explain the therapy process, answer any questions you may have, and discuss confidentiality and informed consent. We will also explore your strengths, resources, and areas of focus for our work together. Throughout the session, I will actively listen to your experiences without judgment and offer empathy, validation, and support. Together, we will begin to identify patterns, themes, and goals to guide our work in subsequent sessions. By the end of the first session, clients can expect to have a clearer understanding of the therapeutic process, feel heard and validated, and have a sense of hope and direction as we embark on the journey of therapy together.
