About My Clients
My ideal client is aware there is a problem, and wants to become a part of the long term solution to increased or improved coping behaviors and quality of life. If you improving was as simple as having a list of 100 coping skills, you wouldn't need talk therapy. You are willing to engage in activities between appointments to set realistic, meaningful goals with your own insight. We collaborate to develop reasonable steps to inspire you, and get you back on track through therapy.
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background of having training in many different environments, across the country, with supervisors who have different backgrounds which has allowed me insight to various ways to take control of the stressors in your life, and transition to different levels of care. I work from a person-centered, strengths-based, solution-focused approach. A unique aspect to my approach is I want to teach you about the therapy we provide and how to implement these interventions into your self-talk, belief systems and lifestyle choices. I want to have a genuine relationship where I help you break down options in to ways that you can use with clear instructions on what to do in your fight against mood dysregulation, dysfunctional thinking, maladaptive beliefs, and improve functioning promptly to perform well in your relationships, in your professional life, and improve your quality of life daily.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in freedom of choice and bodily autonomy related to your treatment in counseling and in medical interventions throughout your life. I belief that information is power and without it we are susceptible to being manipulated by others. We are capable of freeing ourselves from intergenerational trauma and social engineering. Bridging the relationship between the mind and the body can be half the battle with living with chronic conditions in an overstimulating modern world. I embrace a culturally diverse world which has impacted where I went to college and where I have worked. I am a lover of animals. I love dogs and horses the most. I love to travel and do so whenever possible. I believe in the power of nature as a support to healing. I enjoy sports in person but dont have any favorite teams.
