I have over 25 years of experience working with individuals in the social work field. I have worked with individuals that have experienced significant trauma, so I approach therapy with a trauma-informed mindset. Your trauma does not define you. I will strive to work collaboratively with my clients to work through their complex emotions. A client needs to feel comfortable and safe with their therapist in order to have the most effective outcomes.
The client is the expert of their life. I want to hear the client's story. I will allow space for the client to move at their pace. The client/therapist relationship should work as a collaboration. I use a client-centered and strengths-based model.
Starting therapy can be an intimidating experience. I strive to provide a safe and secure space for my clients. I will allow my clients to share and move forward at their pace. Clients should be able to share their thoughts and feelings without the fear of being judged. I am excited to start this healing journey with you.
