I have 19 years of experience as a therapist and social worker. I use a strengths-based, client-centered approach and I believe psychotherapy is an effective tool in helping people overcome fears, anxiety, depression, and maladaptive patterns and behaviors. I strive to help clients tap into strengths they didn't know they had and form positive relationships.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, I conduct some intake questions to gather family history, health concerns, and mental health treatment history. Then we address what brings you to therapy and what outcomes you hope to achieve in working together. I formulate a treatment plan and we set a treatment schedule to begin the work.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Some of my greatest strengths are teaching coping skills to reduce anxiety and depression and helping you examine patterns throughout your lifetime of old behaviors that no longer serve you. You can expect to receive support during life transitions and discover strengths you did not know lie inside you. I'm here to help you become your best version of yourself.
