While an “ideal client” does not exist, it is important to speak to the matter of my orientation. I’ve a Progressive orientation. I claim no religion. I grew up the daughter of a Baptist minister & I know the damage such a culture can create. I respect & honor any religion that respects the rights of women. Women’s rights are human rights. I aim to be very clear in my communication & orientation so that no expectations are assumed.
I have decades of working in both hospital settings as well as outpatient. People with overlapping physical & mental health issues benefit from my training in Clinical Health psychology.
I’m happy that you are engaged in shifting gears about problem(s) that have been gnawing on you for some time. When you contact me, I provide a free 30 min consultation. You are not deemed to be a client of mine until I have sent you an Informed Consent form, you sign it, and send it back to my HIPAA number, & I verify I hve received it.
