I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona. I worked in the Non-Profit sector for several years and have been in private practice since 2012. I have extra education in Grief Counseling, Health and Lifestyle Coaching and Personal Training. I meet clients where they are and help them leverage the synergy between mind and body to access the strength and momentum needed to move through Life.
My approach
My primary theoretical approaches are Person-Centered, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-focused Therapy.
My focus
I love working with clients who want a collaborative environment to work on and explore their need to seek clarity and generate energy around what they stand for, where they are headed and what is keeping them from moving in that direction.
My communication style
Working with me you can expect a comfortable and supportive environment with a dose of challenge and accountability. Together we will talk about who you are and what is challenging you right now. We will then create a strategy and plan to strengthen your foundation and create the framework that will support you in building the next stage of your valuable life.
My journey to mental healthcare
At the heart of my desire to do this work is my genuine love for people and life. It is both beautiful and difficult and I believe everyone needs a place that is just for them to talk about and work on thoughts, feelings and goals that have no outside expectations. To be supported and understood. A place to heal and grow and create a life by design.
My goals for you
Together we will create goals that are important to the client and fill them out into measurable, attainable and time-oriented increments. Creating accountability and follow through while continuing to adjust as needed.
My first session with you
When meeting with me for the first time, clients can expect a comfortable, supportive and collaborative environment. My desire it to get to know where you have come from and what is brining you to therapy now and how together we can help you heal, grow and move.
