(he/him)
Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania and have been practicing for 20 years plus. I see the best fit for my clients would be those who struggle with emotionally grounding/balancing themselves due to relationship issues, dependency issue, anxiety and/or depression due to the recent/past trauma or derives from your family of origin. I provide various types of coping skills including mindfulness/meditation/deep breathing exercise/holistic approach and energy psychology.
Almost 90% or more clients when they interact with me, they all say the same thing. I feel relieved, much calmer and most of all they feel more hopeful than when they first walked into my office.
My greatest gifts/strengths would be to show them what's like to be completely being understood, validated and empathized where they are at in their lives. By doing so will install a hope and encourage them to take the next step in what seems helpless and hopeless life circumstances.
I love working with clients who are eager to implement something new in their lives. Also who are specifically looking for eastern philosophical approach to improving their lives. But it is not necessary...
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
My form of therapy is based on the following foundation: - Relationship cultivation (Trust, mutual respect, understanding and acceptance) - Highlighting positive qualities/Strength based approach - Experiential sessions to teach several coping skills (for depression and anxiety) which derived from Energy Psychology. - Centering/grounding of "Self" practice
