What do you love most about therapy?
I love using skills and interventions that raise the client’s level of readiness to change and seeing clients learn and utilize new skills and tools to reach their goals. I love to partner with my clients on the journey of self-discovery in therapy.
What are your specialties and how are you different from other therapists?
I work best with clients who have experienced or are experiencing difficult, scary, or stressful life situations that are affecting them in an uncomfortable way, causing them to live life in a way that is interfering with their functioning or happiness.
I come from a very client centered focus where I am genuine and empathetic with a client. I like to use a strength-based approach with CBT and Motivational Interviewing techniques when working with clients. I specialize in behavior management in children. I work well with individuals with a history of trauma. I’m passionate about helping parents manage the stressors of parenting children with both typical and special needs.
How do you inspire hope in your clients?
I inspire hope in clients by helping them recognize their strengths and successes and utilizing those in overcoming obstacles.
How do you find balance and care for yourself?
It is important for me to make time for myself to do things I enjoy. I also utilize my support network.
