New to Grow
I have over a decade of experience working with a wide variety of clients to address what matters most to them regarding their mental health journey. I work from a collaborative, strengths-based approach. Let's figure out what is going well and build on that. I have lived all over the country and have had to privilege to work with many excellent mentors who have helped me grow in my knowledge and skills.
In our first session I will find out more about you and what you want to address. I will work to build some foundation skills and discuss out of session work I will be asking you to do.
My genuine interest in others is what makes me a good therapist. I treat each client as an individual and adapt treatment to meet you where you are in your journey.
I do best working with individuals who are seeking a therapist who is open-minded and who can admit that I do not have all of the answers. What I do have is a deep interest in exploring with you, while you figure out what does work for you. I know how important trust is in this relationship and how difficult those first steps can be.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I practice from a person centered perspective. That means you are the expert on you, what you are experiencing, and your world. I'm the person to help you navigate that by guiding you towards a foundation of real life skills that makes it easier.
Trauma Informed Care
I have over a decade in practice using trauma informed care, cognitive behavior therapy, and other modalities that fit your situation/needs.
