Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session I will start with a brief introduction and give you the opportunity to share your reason for seeking therapy. My goal is to understand your need in order to move forward in a manner that benefits you and your well being.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Over the past 20 years I have worked with trauma due to abuse and violence, as well as, grief and loss. My greatest strengths are with individuals who have experienced sexual abuse, physical abuse, and/or exposure to domestic violence. I understand the effects of trauma and how it affects everyone differently; anxiety, depression, anger, intrusive memories, difficulty sleeping, and the ability to trust is just to name a few of the symptoms that can be present. Empowering my clients to not let it hinder them from being happy and moving forward is my ultimate goal.
