I have been in practice for 10 years and have been successful in working with clients who come to session with a wide arrange of diagnoses. I have come to really embrace working with those who struggle with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and overall stress. I am ready to meet you where you are currently in your mental health journey and walk along beside you to better days ahead.
I am one who comes from a teaching-based perspective. I feel in order to take on your mental health, you first have to understand your mental health. Therefore, I make sure you are knowledgeable in your diagnosis, symptoms, how your body responds to different triggers and what to look out for when faced with different stressors. This gives you a proactive stance with your mental health vs. a reactive stance. Then we work on how to reduce negative symptoms overall and get back to stability.
Clients will take away from their session's knowledge about their diagnosis, clearer understanding of how their bodies react in certain situations, how to cope more effectively and how to obtain emotional regulation. Clients can expect from me understanding, patience, and empathy. They will get to see me as an advocate for them as I will be cheering them on along the way.
