Personal Statement
Through the use of specialized therapeutic techniques, I work with each of my clients to individually address the issues that are keeping them from experiencing the fullness that life has to give. I use an personalized approach to counseling that takes into account pairing various therapeutic techniques with the strengths of my clients. I utilize a kind yet firm approach to challenge my clients to explore alternative solutions, views, and thoughts around issues with the goal of promoting growth, self reflection and resolution.
As a counselor, coach and supervisor, I worked with adolescents to ensure safety and security while also promoting personal growth. By developing honest, empathetic connections with youth I was successful in promoting their achievement of therapeutic goals. I was able to expand my support and reach to these at-risk youth by modeling intervention approaches and techniques, as well as, providing specialized training in cognitive restructuring, behavior management and building healthy self esteem.
