I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 16 years of clinical experience. I have worked in a wide range of settings and have built a set of skills that enables me to be flexible and to customize my treatment to the needs of the client. I am client centered, friendly and pride myself on building rapport quickly. I generally work with adults with issues of anxiety, depression, relationships, PTSD and substance use.
I tend to use methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy but always focus on my clients own needs first, rather than a one size fits all method.
Clients' can expect to walk away from the session feeling heard and validated. They tend to have a better idea of how to accomplish their goals that bring them into therapy. They are able to identify and remove barriers that are getting their way along the healing process.
