Hello and welcome!
My name is Penelope, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in education and school counseling. In this role I work extensively with children and families, primarily using Solution-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approaches that help children build coping skills and resilience in a practical, goal-oriented way.
My approach to therapy is always client centered as I believe you are the expert in your own life. It is my goal to build a collaborative therapeutic relationship where we work together to develop goals and treatment outcomes.
I strive to create a warm and welcoming space for every client I work with where you will feel supported. I believe that each person has a unique lived experience which makes them a dynamic and multifaceted individual. With all clients, I aim to lead with empathy and understanding while also providing gentle challenges that encourage growth and promote lasting change.
