Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work and Undergraduate Degree in Psychology with a minor in Religious Studies. I am passionate about helping people whom may be having difficulty navigating different mental health issues such as PTSD/ Trauma, Loss, Depression, and Anxiety. I take a person-centered approach with clients to give them a space to talk freely and openly without fear of judgement while being empathetic and compassionate throughout the therapeutic process. It takes a lot of courage to take the step to enter therapy, and I am happy you have made this first step in your healing journey!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will work through introductions and for me to get a little bit of a better understanding as to why the client is seeking therapy services. This will help me collaborate with the client for follow-up sessions and next steps.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in the mental health field for the past 8 years it is important to me that a client feels comfortable to discuss their most vulnerable self. I am compassionate and take seriously my line of work, and would never ask a client to do something I myself would not be willing to do. It's okay to not be okay, just don't stay stuck there!
