“It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.” -Lou Holtz Many of us weren't given healthy tools to use effectively. Beginning therapy is the first sign that you're ready for the positive changes you deserve. These first steps can be pretty stressful. I want to offer all the support you need in your journey! Change is never easy and I'm proud of you for making it this far! I want to empower you, advocate for you, be your support system, and crack a few jokes with you from time to time, lol. I have years of experience, life lessons, testimonials, and honest perspective. I value the therapeutic relationship and try to provide availability beyond the routine 1x/wk sessions. I encourage my clients to reach out to me anytime. “My personal goal is to build self-sufficiency in my clients. I take pride in the moment when I am no longer needed.” -A. Parker
We'll review lifestyle routine and discuss goals for positive change and what that should look like over time. I'll make sure you're ready to build a therapeutic relationship at your pace. We'll discuss how frequently we should meet and if necessary I may give a short assignment.
My biggest strength is that I'm personable so your experience will be nothing like you've seen on tv and movies, lol. Whether online or in person you will feel like you're talking to someone you've known for yrs. I like to make sure my client's are comfortable and have a fulfilling experience.

This treatment method has been most effective for over 10+yrs because I have gained extensive experience with different modalities and applying the principles of CBT has helped individuals identify and change negative thought patterns. My training and practical experience has equipped me with the skills to effectively use its techniques, such as cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and mindfulness, to support personal growth and emotional well-being.
