The initial step into a therapist's office is part of the process for change because it acknowledges the importance of making that change while realizing that it is healthy to reach out for help. Therapy allows you uninterrupted time to focus on the issues important to you, while the therapist provides the encouragement and tools necessary to reach your goals.

I work with clients by first understanding their needs and pull from a variety of interventions and methods in order to best serve my clients.

“People start to heal the moment they feel heard.” -Cheryl Richardson. My goal is to help you feel heard and to help you heal.

Life can feel overwhelming at times but having a support person to guide you through this can have a positive impact on your life. I see therapy as an opportunity to collaborate with patients to identify how to move through struggles to get to a better place and be their best selves. My approach is direct but compassionate and I use strengths-based interventions. I offer a safe and judgment-free space to process through struggles and help you get the most out of your treatment. This journey is not always easy but having a therapist to support and guide you can make the journey a bit easier and not feel so alone.

Since attending therapy is an implicit admission of imperfections for most people, my approach to counseling is person-centered and collaborative. Once the therapeutic alliance has been established, this approach allows clients to express their emotional reactions, develop more productive ways of dealing with feelings, and increase their levels of understanding and awareness. My counseling philosophy is to provide support, education, feedback and treatment that inspires clients to successfully take appropriate actions that will assist with solving their problems. Therapist qualities that I utilize include, but are not limited to, mutual respect, authenticity, genuineness, integrity, and the ability to empathize.

My ideal client is dealing with substance abuse and they along with their family have suffered tremendously. They can be in any of the 4 stages of change.

Betrayal, boring sex, lack of communication, constant fighting and lack of intimacy are problems I have the expertise to treat. Clients leave here with an increased understanding of vulnerabilities and tools to repair their problems. I also see people who are experiencing anxiety and depression. These problems are causing clients anger, frustration, worry and a general sense of I am unworthy and no good.

I believe that we all need someone to listen....really listen and that I believe is the power of the relationship between client and therapist. We all need someone to guide us, walk with us and help us through difficult times that are either happening now or have happened in our past. I strive to be that for my clients. I believe that helping a client understand themselves better and understand how their mental health is impacting their relationships and their own level of functioning is the path to healing and recovery.
