I
focus on adolescents and adults using CBT and other individualized
tools to change perspectives and empower the person. I primarily work
with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, and
relationship concerns.
There are some challenges we feel
ill-equipped to handle, especially when they accompany major life
transitions. These experiences can greatly impact our sense of
stability and leave us feeling incapable and even doubtful about the
future. I am committed to providing honest, respectful, and thoughtful
treatment to serve your needs best. I seek to help individuals who feel
stuck due to negative past experiences or trauma. I assist people in
uncovering patterns and negative self-talk that have resulted in
unhealthy behaviors.
My work with people is strength-based and
client-centered. My eclectic approach combines multiple modalities and
tools depending on your needs and goals. Some of them include Cognitive
Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Christian
Counseling, Solution-Focused Therapy, Art Therapy, Aroma Therapy, and
Sand Tray Therapies.
Social/Restorative Justice, Collaborative
Problem-Solving, Spirituality, and Moral Reconation Therapy are other
practices and theories that influence my approach to therapy. My
education, combined with years of experience as a counselor/teacher to
the at-risk population, has influenced my work with adolescents and
adults.
I desire to help people overcome the concerns that prevent
them from living and experiencing fulfillment. I enjoy being able to
encourage people and celebrate their successes. But the most meaningful
moments are when “the light bulb comes on,” which changes the person’s
path. I was born for this!
