The purpose I have found is within helping others. I find great meaning in standing with my clients to help guide them in finding and achieving their goals. Up until this point, I have challenged myself to learn and achieve in order to maximize my abilities in helping others. When asked, my clients have described my style of counseling as “warm”, “comfortable”, and “helpful”. In addition, I often utilize humor in order to provide relief. Outside of being a counselor, I am proud to be a daughter, friend, sister, and wife. The relationships in my life hold great importance and have shaped my desire to connect with and help others.

My top priority is to foster a strong relationship with my clients. I focus on providing a comfortable, warm, and nonjudgemental space where clients feel loved and seen.

When coming to therapy at In Your Corner Counseling, I like to begin by getting to know my clients and assess their goals for therapy. During this initial meeting, my hope is for us to become comfortable with one another and to foster a safe environment. Once we have had a chance to find comfort and build a relationship, I begin to support my client’s journey of insight, knowledge, healing, and growth. This is the same for marriage counseling. I will work with you each week, or every other week, to reach the goals you entered therapy with, as well as exploring beyond those goals. Once you have reached the point of desire, we begin to slowly faze out our sessions. I do offer “maintenance” sessions to process through the daily occurrences and to help keep you in a place you want to be in. Now, what if you do not know your goals? That is OKAY, you do not need to come into therapy with goals in mind. We will explore those together. If you simply want/need a place to feel supported and safe, that is therapy, and that is what you would find at my practice. The rest we can figure out along the way.
