What does a first session with you look like?

My main goal in the counseling process is to assist clients in improving and/or stabilizing their overall well-being. Throughout the counseling process I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared and explored without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process and look forward to working with you.

What is your style/approach to therapy?

My counseling style is collaborative and draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. Each individual session is tailored to be best fit the client’s needs. In the counseling process it is important to feel comfortable sharing how you feel and ask any questions. Throughout the process you will be provided the space to practice new skills and implement positive coping strategies to assist with your healing.
