LPC, 14 years of experience
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor serving clients in Georgia. I have worked with a diverse group of patients in a variety of clinical settings, addressing a multitude of mental health disorders. I have worked with populations to include but not limited to , Juvenile Offenders, Substance abusing youth, Adults with developmental disabilities and Adults with severe and persistent Mental Illness in a community setting.
My style of therapy is to be my most authentic self and I encourage my patients to do the same. My goal is to create a safe space for patients to be as authentic and vulnerable as needed. The first session is an opportunity to get to know the patient and identify their needs, through assessment and conversation.
My greatest strength as a therapist, is my authenticity and open minded approach. I am transparent and direct in my communication and creative in my approaches and challenge my patients to be the best version of themselves.
My primary treatment focus is on transitional age youth. ( ages 13 -26yo), however I have experience working with a diverse group of individuals .
I take an eclectic approach to treatment. I value individuality and authenticity and the use of various evidence based models allows me to tailor treatment to individual clients needs. Taking an eclectic approach to therapy allows for more authentic and creative intervention and outcomes.
