My passion is children and adolescents, particulary those in the foster care system. I have worked with biological parents as well as foster parents, Dept of Family Services, and court systems. I also love working with adults who are experiencing depression, anxiety and low self esteem which can affect everyone in their circle. Family therapy is something I believe strongly in and have had some good successes at.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. I believe that I need to hear your story and actively listen to you. I want to see if we are a good fit together and how we can move forward as a team.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am a bit different as a therapist, I want you to feel completely comfortable with me, and I with you. I believe that this takes time and I want to use that time wisely. I want you to be able to share with me if you are feeling anxious or any big or small feelings with me. I want an open door to healing. I also want to learn from you and your experiences, as they allow me to grow with you.
