As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I specialize in helping individuals navigate life's most overwhelming moments. When you are in the middle of a crisis, it can be incredibly difficult to see a way out. My goal is to provide a safe, stabilizing environment where we can untangle the chaos together.
My practice is deeply rooted in solution-focused therapy. This means that while we will certainly process what you are going through, we won't stay stuck in the problem. Instead, we will actively work together to identify your inherent strengths, set achievable goals, and build practical strategies for immediate and long-term relief. Whether you are facing a sudden life transition, an acute crisis, or just feeling stuck, I am here to help you regain your footing and move forward with confidence.
Your initial appointment is entirely focused on information gathering. We will spend our first session exploring your background, experiences, and personal preferences. While my therapeutic approach is highly solution-based, having a complete understanding of who you are is essential for me to provide effective, tailored solutions for the specific challenges you are facing. Because we need to build this foundation first, we will not dive into active problem-solving or solutions during our very first meeting.
A Note on Crisis Intervention
There is an exception: if you are currently experiencing an acute crisis. I am highly experienced in crisis intervention. If immediate stabilization is what you need during our first session, please relay that to me so we can shift our focus. Please keep in mind, however, that crisis intervention services are designed for immediate safety and relief, and are not typically structured as ongoing therapy. If you are experiencing suicidal ideations, teletherapy would not be considered appropriate and you will be encouraged to seek emergent care at your local hospital.
