About
I am a school counselor, mental health counselor, and an LPC with ten 10 years of experience. My clientele includes children, adolescents, couples, and adults that suffer with various issues: ADHD, abuse, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, dual-diagnosis, PTSD, and substance abuse. In addition, I work with clients who have issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship and family of origin issues, and high-risk behaviors such as alcohol use/abuse,
I approach counseling from a client-centered approach in which I take a nondirective role. I will listen and try to understand things from your point of view. I will respect and protect your autonomy and self-direction. If I am unsure about anything, I will check for understanding with you, the client. Various other theories and strategies will be used based on you, the client, individual issues and needs. I work with a variety of clients in the following formats: individual and family counseling. I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds.
Counseling is a collaborative process, and you, the client, are a full partner in this relationship. I expect you to be honest, open, and have a sincere desire to change in order to maximize the benefits of each counseling session. As we work together and you have any suggestions or concerns about counseling, I expect you to share these with me so that we can make any necessary adjustments needed.
I look forward to working with you!
