Approach to Therapy

If you are looking at this page, it means you have already taken the hardest step, and decided it was time to consider counseling for yourself, your child or your family. I want to help you and your family to learn and grow. With everything going on, it may feel like you are just surviving, when you deserve to thrive! People are often struggling to balance expectations, requirements, and responsibilities with all of the other daily stressors that can pop up.

I believe in working with the ‘big picture’, considering the mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual domains that affect a person’s health and wellness. Each client is unique, and as such, the treatment plan will be tailored to suit your specific strengths and needs. I will use my experience working with individuals and families to empower and support you and your family by providing a safe and therapeutic space in which we will learn more about you and your current stressors, acknowledge the way thoughts and emotions affect behaviors and actions, identify the way that our surroundings affect our mental health and wellness and address interpersonal difficulties and communication barriers.

The relationship between a counselor and client serves as the foundation to a healthy and productive counseling journey and finding the right counselor for you and your family is an important first step. Because this is so important, I offer a free initial 30-minute consultation, where you can come and meet me and get an idea of how I would approach working with you to find a way through what you are struggling with.

I strive to provide you and your family with proven and effective counseling services utilizing the Person-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches. When working with children and adolescents, I love to incorporate the therapeutic arts and play interventions to support expression and communication.

Counseling can seem like a scary process at times, or one other ‘thing’ to add to your already busy life. I have a flexible schedule and can work with you to find a time that suits you best. I hope to help you find balance and peace in your life and help you make the shift from surviving to thriving!
