New to Grow
I am a counselor with lots of experience with different types and ages of people. I am also very curious and love learning about the different experiences of each person. I have clients from age 13 to age 75. If you want someone who is going to listen carefully, help you figure out what is best for you and works on line - we will make a good match! One more thing you might want to know is many of the people who are or have been my clients are part of the LGBTQI+ community.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
The first session gives you a chance to share some of what you are hoping to change, understand or how to cope. You do not need to share everything, we have just met! I will be asking some questions like "Where do you live now? in a house? apartment?" "Do you go to school? Work?" Just some basic information.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strengths ? I do not judge, I am always curious about what you want and what you have tried. I am open to new ideas but have years of experience. I live my life around this "What can I do today to make my life more manageable? " I do not believe it is my job to tell others how to live, but I can help guide the person who wants guidance. And I have made lots of mistakes, so I have figured out some answers.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal clients are people who - want to improve their relationships with friends/family - want to understand themselves better - want help managing depression and/or anxiety - members of the LGBTQI+ community - teens looking for someone who listens, not judges - those of any age who are going through life changes -
Eclectic
You might look at this name for therapy and wonder, "What the heck is that?" Well, it means I use different types of therapy depending on the person and what they want to achieve.
