As a licensed social worker, my aim is to support, guide, and educate individuals as they navigate life’s challenges. My approach is client-centered and strengths-based. With all individuals I work to help you process difficult experiences, develop effective coping strategies, and reconnect with your own strengths. Together, we can work toward your goals to move you to a more calming place.
I have found that focusing first on the individual's goals, and learning about their experience is key to success and growth in their lives. In my work, I utilize a mix of treatment approaches to best suit each particular client unique experience including CBT, DBT, and motivational work.
During a first session, I desire to learn as much as possible about an individual and answer any questions they may have on the therapy process. This may look like exploring where an individual is currently, what has brought them to this point, and other any factors that may play a role in their story. My hope is to make each client feel heard and supported in their first session. In next steps, together we will make a plan to reach their goals.
