Welcome. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and am licensed in the state of California. I am originally from Iceland but have lived in the U.S. since January of 2005. I received my education at Capella University and graduated in 2017. I have experience working with CPTSD, PTSD, anxiety & panic, self-esteem, self-doubt, cultural stress, existential crisis, first generation immigration & family estrangement. I’m passionate about empowering the self and as a person-centered, strength-based therapist, I believe that you seek therapy with the untapped ability to be your best self.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, and then discuss the reason you entered therapy. This helps me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. You can also ask me questions, and talk to me about your fears about entering therapy (if any). After I tailor a treatment plan, I will discuss this with you to make sure that you and I are on the same page.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have had success in assisting clients to identify the root cause of their challenges as well as creating plans that lead to measurable progress. I also can help clients come to terms with that changes do not happen overnight and progress comes with dedication, which I believe we all can find within ourselves, little by little. I also believe I can learn from the client and their word matters. Clients are the experts in their life's journey.
