I am passionate about mental health and mental health recovery. I believe that every client has the ability to grow and find what works for them. Healing and growth are not linear and take time. Change is constant. I believe that we are always growing and changing and that we can direct this flow when needed. I strive to create a safe, comfortable and collaborative environment in order to provide clients the space to grow. I value the client's right to self-determination. I am here to support clients on their journeys to health, wellness, and self-discovery.
I start with person-centered, strength based approaches with clients. I utilize techniques from dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques with clients.
As a counselor, I am here to help you help yourself. As a client, you are the expert on you. As a counselor, I draw from your expertise and experience to provide individualized care by providing education and teaching new techniques along the way. Reach out if you would like to learn more.
