LMHC, 8 years of experience
New to Grow
I believe in seeing the client before me as a whole person rather than his or her diagnosis. The therapy room should be safe space to develop a positive relationship with a therapist one has rapport with and I aim to be that therapist for everyone who walks into my office. I utilize multiple tools and theories in sessions; but at the core, I am a person-centered therapist who practices unconditional positive regard for my clients. Whatever issue or life change brings you to therapy, I will work with you to help you create a more positive mental space for yourself, and empower you to make the necessary changes to impact your life in a beneficial manner. Therapy is a tool for everyone to use; life can get challenging, and having someone in your corner to support you through different obstacles can be an advantage.
In a first session, we will get to know each other in a natural and comfortable way. I will listen, ask questions, gather history, and ensure that the client feels comfortable continuing their treatment with me.
I have worked with a variety of clients with various diagnoses, backgrounds, and stories, and diagnoses. I am constantly learning and growing as a therapist and I welcome honest discourse and feedback. I believe the client is their own expert and I am fortunate enough to be with them on their healing journy.
I work best with clients who are open to the positive benefits of therapy and understand that it is a process.
