My ideal client struggles with mental health issues like anxiety, depression, or trauma, faces life transitions, or has low self-esteem and chronic stress. They need a thorough assessment, personalized care plan that sometimes includes medication, ongoing support, and educational resources. Their goals include improving mental health, boosting self-esteem, navigating life changes smoothly, and achieving work-life balance. They seek relief from symptoms, personal growth, stability, and a supportive therapeutic relationship to lead a more fulfilling life.
My assessment of clients includes a careful consideration of the importance of fluctuating mental states and key relationships in their life, as well as family and cultural patterns. I strive to develop an understanding of the interconnection of an individual’s mind, body and soul. I join with you to help you discover meaning and purpose in your struggles.
I believe that the body heals with play, the mind heals with laughter, and the soul heals with joy. Give me a call or shoot me an email today so I can equip you with the tools that will assist you with integrating all three to become the best version of you!
