I am a psychotherapist, providing mental health treatment to individuals in Kentucky. I completed my Master of Social Work at the University of Kentucky in 2018 and have since been providing mental health therapy services to individuals and families throughout Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati. I have worked with small children, adolescents and adults of all ages, now I primarily work with women.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session you can expect us to complete an assessment together. This looks like you providing a lot of background information to me so that I can get a better picture of your mental health. While it can be a bit daunting to have to recount a large amount of information, we will take it at your speed and only briefly touch on this during this first session. You do not have to divulge things in great detail, especially if that makes you uncomfortable, but know that some background information is vital to my understanding of your functioning and treatment needs. We can always continue exploring past events in future sessions if need be. I like to send out a questionnaire prior to our meeting so that I have some idea of what lead you to seek care, and it provides us with some starting points.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a provider are my approaches to care. I attempt to provide more holistic care and implement mindfulness throughout sessions. I feels this gives clients education about themselves and helps them gain useful concrete skills they can leave with.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I have a passion for helping women, whether they are struggling with anxiety, health issues, or becoming a parent. I strive to help individuals find their strengths and heal themselves. I have training in trauma focused treatments and am also available to help individuals who have experienced trauma. While I primarily work with adult women, I can also provide services to teens and young adults who struggle with anxiety and depression.
