What was your path to becoming a therapist? What inspired you to choose this profession?

Acknowledge-Accept- Adapt has become my Mantra/Approach to helping others to heal or become the better version of themselves. I have worked with individuals who are looking to gain insight into themselves and improve their quality of life for more than 8 years in the mental health arena. My experience as a former educator in General (13yrs) and Special Education (2yrs) has afforded me experience with working with many different areas of the family dynamic. I seek to understand each individual holistically, including their backgrounds and the strengths they already possess to provide an individualized and positive approach. I believe that establishing a solid alliance with my patients/clients is essential to getting the most out of therapy and creating lasting change. Through this alliance, I like to partner with the patients/clients to explore and address thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns that serve as barriers to enjoying life thoroughly. In addition to this alliance, I would like to work with the individual's family to build a level of support and relationship that has a positive impact on the healing and growth of the patient/client.
