Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida, with additional licensure in NY and NC. I graduated from St. Lawrence University in Upstate New York and have been practicing in the field for nearly 8 years. I enjoy working with motivated individuals who are interested in exploring and adapting those thought patterns and behaviors that are no longer serving them. Feeling stress in your body and don't know why? Wondering why you can't get out of your own head or your own way? I'm here to listen, provide helpful tools, and guide you in uncovering your own strengths and abilities in order to work through life's challenges and ultimately reach your wellness goals!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I like to start our first session by exchanging introductions, including providing some more relevant information about my background and how I practice, along with something called 'informed consent,' so you can better understand your rights as well as expectations for treatment. The rest of our session will primarily focus on you, just as it should be! I will ask you more details about what currently brings you to treatment, as well as your background, former mental health and related treatment experience, and whatever else is relevant to providing you the best, quality care possible. I then like to finish our visit by understanding your life goals and how these might translate to your goals in therapy. This will help guide the focus of our work together, both in and outside of visits.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
In my work over the last 8 years, I have learned that everyone progresses at their own pace. My goal is to meet you where you are at, with YOU as the leading expert on your treatment. I try to take on the role as an equal partner and active listener in this journey that you're on, providing guidance when needed, while understanding that no one knows you as well as you know yourself. I want you to feel empowered to own your strengths, accept your limits, and conquer any obstacles that get in the way of you achieving your goals, both in and outside of therapy.
