What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Sessions range from 45-60 minutes, on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly basis. Your first appointment will be used to assess your needs by gathering information on your reasons for coming to counseling, as well as your past and current mental health history. After the assessment, together we will identify your needs and goals for counseling and develop a treatment plan with a selection of treatment modalities.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My mission is to provide the individuals I serve with a safe place to process their feelings and work through life challenges. My goal is to help individuals gain insight on how to improve their mental health by learning therapeutic skills to foster personal growth, independence, and healing.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I hold eight years of counseling experiencing working with children, adolescents, adults, groups, families, and persons living with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), or substance use disorders.
