Clients are often looking for a safe, accessible, and non-judgmental space to discuss their concerns, gain insights into their emotions, develop coping mechanisms, and work towards achieving personal goals, often due to factors like lack of access to traditional therapy, comfort with digital interactions, or a need for immediate support.
As a CMHC/ MFC counselor I specialize in a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship conflicts, low self-esteem, life transitions, trauma processing, and addiction recovery. I will provide a safe, accessible, non-judgmental space to discuss concerns, gain emotional insight, develop coping mechanisms & achieve goals.
Actively listening, validation of your feelings, communicating a genuine understanding of the presenting issues, and creating a safe space to open up is necessary to achieve a successful therapeutic relationship between client and counselor. Lets build!

My primary style of therapy is "Person-Centered Therapy" developed by Carl Rogers, where the client takes the lead in the session, and the therapist primarily focuses on providing a supportive, non-judgmental environment, actively listening and reflecting back the client's emotions and experiences to help them gain self-awareness and find their own solutions to problems.
