The ideal clients that I would love to help and collaborate with are clients that are dealing with anxiety, depression, substance use disorder, bipolar, and schizophrenia. This client population needs a knowledgeable clinician who provides patient-centered care and is willing and able to listen to clients with genuine care and empathy. The client’s goal is to be a functional member of our society via volunteering in our community, working and providing for themselves and their family, to be emotionally present with their family and friends, and have the necessary coping skills to utilize when faced with adversities.
Working closely with clients who have anxiety, depression, substance use disorder, bipolar, and schizophrenia for over 10 years gives an insight and prospective that allows me to tailor the care for client’s individual needs in developing the collaborative approach in managing mental health. I work with the clients to live their life to the fullest.
•If you or someone that you know and love, are suffering from anxiety, depression, bipolar, substance use disorder, schizophrenia, and long with other mental health issues, please reach out to me, I promise you that things can be better, life can have so much more to offer when we take care and prioritize our mental health.
