Clients say this provider is
With more than 25 years of experience, I specialize in supporting children, and adults who face ADHD, anxiety, substance abuse, depression, developmental delays, trauma, learning disabilities, and difficulties with emotional regulation. I understand that every person is unique. I take a personalized, compassionate approach to create a safe and supportive environment where healing and growth can flourish. I am dedicated to building strong, trusting relationships. I also provide practical tools and strategies that promote resilience, confidence, and positive changes.
In the first counseling session, you can expect a welcoming and supportive environment focused on getting to know one another. I typically explains confidentiality, the counseling process, and what sessions may look like going forward. You are invited to share concerns, goals, and relevant background at a pace that feels comfortable. The session often includes discussing what you hope to gain from counseling and collaborating on next steps. Overall, the first session is about building rapport, establishing trust, and laying the foundation for future work together.
Because trust is a key part of the counseling process, I incorporate my animals as an additional source of comfort into sessions. They help clients feel more at ease, encourages engagement, and often becomes a bridge that allows clients to open up more freely.
My ideal client is someone who is willing to approach the therapeutic process with an open mind and a commitment to honesty—both with themselves and with me. This openness creates a strong foundation for self-reflection, growth, and meaningful progress. If you feel hesitant or reluctant about starting therapy, don’t dismiss it. With a little time, patience, and effort, we can work together to help you feel more comfortable and get you to a place where therapy can be a meaningful and positive part of your journey.
During a counseling session you can expect a supportive and structured experience focused on learning and understanding. I provide information about emotions, behaviors, mental health symptoms, or life challenges, helping you see how these factors affect your thoughts and actions. Sessions often include discussion, practical examples, and simple skill-building strategies yoy can use in everyday life. The goal is to empower you with knowledge, increase self-awareness, and build confidence in managing challenges more effectively.
My approach helps children reduce negative behaviors by strengthening their bond with caregivers and skill building. The child learns to not only to identify their feelings but also how to self-regulate.
