First session
In our first sessions clients can expect to tell this counselor what brings them into counseling at this point in their lives, and how do they expect this counselor to help them moving forward.
Strengths
I feel my greatest strength is active listening and having empathy for the people I serve.
Ideal clients
I love working adolescents and adults who are recovering from traumatic events and life situations, and who still struggle to make a better life for themselves.
Treatment methods
Christian Counseling
I provide Biblical-based counseling, using the Bible as a way and means to help people transform their lives according to spiritual principles address in the scripture. I have attended ministry school and earned a diploma in Counseling & Deliverance. Additionally, I am an ordained and licensed Prophetic Elder.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I am here to provide ways to example unhealthy and unproductive patterns of thinking that leads to harmful self behaviors and unstable relationships (home, work, school, community).
Couples Counseling
I am here to help couples develop healthy ways to communicate and using techniques on how to interact and set healthy boundaries.
Motivational Interviewing
Help others to learn new ways to bring about change, using strength based assessments to help people make better choices for their lives.
Cognitive Processing (CPT)
It is important to me that individuals, couples, and families learn how to process their thoughts and feelings in healthy ways by making techniques and skills available to them to learn, relearn, and unlearn unhealthy ways of thinking.
