Hello! I'm thrilled that you're taking the time to look over my profile and considering me to accompany you on your life journey. While I bring experience as a therapist, I believe you are the true expert on your own life. Our sessions will have a natural flow, yet will always be grounded in a structured treatment approach supported by proven outcomes. I look forward to meeting you soon.
My approach
I have been trained in various therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Insight-Oriented Therapy, and Interpersonal Skills Training. In our initial sessions, we will explore your goals for therapy and create a personalized roadmap to achieve them. Each treatment session will be customized to meet your specific needs.
My focus
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am an inclusive practitioner and feel comfortable working with adult individuals of all races, religions, and gender identities.
My communication style
Sessions are a safe space where you are free to express yourself openly and honestly. You can share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment, and know that your privacy and confidentiality are respected. This environment encourages genuine dialogue and allows us to work together in a meaningful way toward your goals.
My journey to mental healthcare
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and choosing this path has been one of the most rewarding decisions of my life. I find human nature incredibly intriguing; our potential for both good and evil is remarkable, and the ability to make a positive impact on others' lives through conversation is both inspiring and hopeful. I approach this work with great seriousness and remain dedicated to ongoing learning in this field.
My goals for you
Goal setting involves synthesizing everything I learn about you during our initial assessment to create a tailored plan that is flexible. This plan will include overarching goals and smaller, manageable objectives that guide us toward your desired outcomes. I prioritize authenticity over perfection, encouraging you to embrace your unique journey. Together, we will develop a reasonable and achievable plan that aligns with your needs and aspirations.
My first session with you
In our first session, the focus will be on me getting to know you and establishing a foundation for our work together. I'll ask a variety of questions that encourage reflection and self-expression, knowing there are no right or wrong answers. This exploration will help us build a deeper understanding and set the stage for our future sessions. Your insights will be invaluable in tailoring our approach to best support your growth and development.
