I help school-age populations with varying emotional and behavioral challenges and school-related difficulties. -I am not accepting cash pay at this time-
First session
In the first session, we will start with introductions and discussions of the limits to confidentiality and the expectations of therapy. Then, we will dive into the specific challenges the client is facing. We will discuss historical information regarding the symptoms, attempted interventions, family dynamics, school function, and social/emotional concerns. This will help create and tailor a treatment plan for the following sessions.
Strengths
Over the past eleven years, I have gained experience working with many children, adolescents, teens, and families with varying levels of emotional and behavioral challenges, providing individual, family, group, and crisis counseling.
Ideal clients
My clients are students (ages 13-17) and young adults (ages 18-23). The minors are navigating the academic and social expectations of school and home environments while discovering their social and emotional needs. The young adults are stepping into adult life and learning the ins and outs of college life/and or figuring out their next step in life while working through social and emotional needs.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
My treatment methods include CBT, Person-Centered/Humanistic, Solution-Focused, and Strengths-Based. This allows me to use different treatment methods depending on the case.
