Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During the first session I will discuss confidentiality, mandatory reporting, and discuss how we can work together in a therapeutic relationship. I begin by getting to know the client, and building trust and rapport. I will complete a full assessment and gather background information from your life. It is important for me to understand where you have come from and where you would like to go in the future. We will develop therapy goals together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have an extensive background as a social worker, and I have worked in several different states and social work settings. I have worked with many different socio-economic backgrounds and many different ethnic groups. My varied background has given me an open-mind allowing me to connect with all types of people. I pride myself on being professional, trustworthy, friendly, and respectful to all clients. I want clients to feel comfortable with me so they get the most out of their therapy experience.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I enjoy working with children (7+ years) through adolescents, and adults. I work with a variety of clients seeking help with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions. I encourage clients to identify their own strengths, empower them to make positive changes, and work within a client-centered approach.
