As a board certified psychotherapist I have seen firsthand the importance of our mental health and the powerful effects that it can have on our lives. Seeking help can be difficult. I applaud you on the taking the first step in making a lasting change in your life! I am of Christian faith. I have been practicing in a variety of different social work related fields for the last 20 years, most recently focusing on anxiety, depression, and past trauma.
Everyone’s story is different. In working together we will strive to better understand your unique story and how our actions, thoughts, and feelings effect individual chapters of our lives. I believe that it is important to have open communication, honesty, and respect in our sessions. My responsible is to be a partner that will listen, challenge you as needed, and support your achievements along the way.
I start with an introductory session to get to know you better and provide you the opportunity to share your story and what you would hope to achieve in therapy. I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment, with humor often sprinkled throughout. It is important for you to feel comfortable and supported in order be open and vulnerable to share your story.
