I enjoy using humor, and evidence-based treatment to help clients reach their goals.
I believe in client self-determination, and will work with you to achieve the goals that matter to you.
First session
Our first session together will be relaxed. It will involve you getting to know me better and me getting to know you better. I try to keep questions to a minimum and make it more of a conversation to put both of us at ease. I look for ways to use humor during the first session without being disrespectful.
Strengths
I listen well, I’m rarely shocked, and I stay positive by believing that you can achieve your goals and have a positive counseling experience leading to improvement and lasting change.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with people who have tried therapy before and felt like it did not work for them. I love working with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, and depression. I enjoy relationship and marriage counseling. Also, I work well with teenagers and families who want to get along better.
