I am a Virginia-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has been practicing for 7 years. I earned my Master's from Troy State University in Alabama. I provide individual and couples therapy with a focus on resolving functionally impairing issues associated with anxiety, relationships, mood disorders, and trauma. I utilize common analogies to assist with providing varied perspectives so clients can recognize the depth of their potential.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The journey through life is unpredictable. So, when you feel as if challenges are coming at you from every direction, you should confront them. It is important to take control of your story by determining your path. The first session is the beginning of the therapeutic process. We will discuss the thoughts, feelings, and behavior that negatively impact your day-to-day functioning. Also, preliminary goals will be identified, and expectations discussed.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a provider I believe my greatest strength is that I understand that life happens to everyone; therefore, I can empathize with many of the challenges and struggles people experience at different stages of their lives.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy working with people who are interested in making positive life changes. The clients I work with understand their current circumstances do not define who they are and do not dictate their futures.
