I am a very passionate therapist who has been counseling individuals since the year 2000. I am animated and authentic. I am dedicated to my clients and their healing. There is nothing more beautiful than watching people transform their lives from dysfunctional to functional and then to extraordinary. I feel honored that I get to do this very important work.
Clients can expect to feel engaged and relaxed during their first session as I am very easy to relate to and talk with. I am objective and nonjudgemental. I check in with my patients regarding how they feel our connection is progressing and I welcome them to let me know if anything about my approach does not "sit well" with them.
My greatest strengths are that I truly do care about my clients and them attaining their best possible outcome.
The clients that I am best suited to treat are people effected by anxiety, depression and trauma. I have a lot of experience in these areas.
This method is is very successful in helping people recognize that what they are thinking is causing their emotions and, in turn, effects their behavior.
Psychoeducation is extremely important so that people can learn about their diagnoses, symptoms, methods of functioning and how they may have been effected by their own specific history.
It is necessary to be a flexible therapist and, at times, utilize an ecletic approach for clients who may benefit from a combination of therapy styles.
Many clients have experienced trauma and require skilled guidance in order to navigate these challenging memories.
