I provide hybrid clinical therapy and telehealth services to individual and families seeking mental health support in a safe clinical environment. I believe that everyone needs support throughout their life span in order to be best version of themselves. The greatest challenge to seeking support is dealing with the stigma of how therapeutic counseling is perceived. It is my focus to create an, inviting, safe and caring environment for each of my clients to unburden, to address their stress/trauma and begin the healing process.
Reuel has over 14 yrs. of therapeutic experience utilizing, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-informed Therapy along with other therapeutic approaches working with various client age groups.
I seek to create an inviting and safe environment for each client who desire to engage in a therapeutic relationship. In person or virtually, you will encounter a welcoming space where the client will be encouraged to safely express their truth, ultimately identifying and formulate a clinical approach, working towards to meeting the needs of the client.
