New to Grow
I have experience working in a community mental health setting and have three years of experience with clients of various ages and diagnoses. My approach in working with clients is warm and relational, focused on supporting you toward your goals. I provide a supportive environment to help you gain greater insight, clarity, and encouragement to live the life you want to live. I help troubleshoot the areas of your life where you feel stuck and explore ways you can move forward to live with greater joy and ease.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, I will get to know you, your reason for starting therapy, and your goals. I will also provide space for you to ask questions and get to know me so that you feel comfortable in the therapeutic relationship.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I offer support and create a welcoming environment where you feel accepted, all while focusing on your potential and the goals you have set for yourself.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I aim to help individuals live more freely in all areas of their life (i.e. relationships, work, family, etc.) and to develop a healthy sense of self that better serves them across all environments. I have experiencing helping clients through life transitions, and those suffering with depression, anxiety, chronic stress, and relationship difficulties. I wish to help clients motivated to change in their substance use journey, encouraging them in their commitment to live according to their goals and to improve their overall health. I empower clients to see their own inherent goodness as the catalyst for change in their life. I look forward to working with you!
Psychodynamic
Part of understanding ourselves involves understanding our past and how it shapes and impacts our current reality. I use a psychodynamic approach to increase personal insight, allowing us to then focus on solutions for the changes you wish to make in your life.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I focus on building an authentic relationship can where you can feel comfortable to be yourself and present to therapy as you really are.
