“It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.” -Lou Holtz I believe in that statement wholeheartedly because many of us weren't taught how to use healthy tools effectively so these first steps can be pretty stressful. I first want to commend you on the decision to be proactive, cause change is never easy! It's a privilege to be a part of your process; I want to empower you, advocate for you, be your support system, and crack a few jokes from time to time, lol. I bring years of skills, experience, life lessons, testimonials, and honest perspective. I value the therapeutic relationship so my availability extends beyond the routine 1x/wk sessions and office hours. I like being in touch with my clients regularly, I mean that! “My personal goal is to build self-sufficiency in my clients. I know that goal has been achieved when I am no longer needed. I am dedicated to reaching that goal every time.” -A. Parker

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Critical thinking skills, HOMEWORK! Lol, Introspection, and hopefully peace.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I've worked with clients from all walks of life in every setting you can think of. I'm always motivated and inspired by my client's progress and resiliency. My therapeutic approach is honest, direct, and effective. Most common referrals are: Depression, Anxiety, Youth Substance Abuse, Anger Management, Mood Disorders, Adjustment Disorder, Childhood PTSD/Trauma, Character Skill Building/Self Esteem, ODD, Stress Reduction, Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, and Parents of Children with Special Needs, interfaith matters, and LGBTQ related concerns. My methods are client-centered, goal-oriented, and solution-focused.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

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 a long time and are comfortable with.
