I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with a background in Philosophy and 5 years of experience in private practice, psychiatric hospital, and higher education settings. I have a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and specialize in mindfulness practices in the treatment of anxiety, ADHD, depression, and other disorders.
I like to use a multi-modal approach: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to correct unrealistic thoughts, Acceptance and Commitment therapy to help cope with harsh realities, mindfulness practice for emotion regulation and focus, and psychodynamic therapy for shaping identity.
I would say that I am a very insight-oriented therapist. Clients should expect to leave sessions with a deeper understanding of their problems, their past, and themselves. Clients should also expect to learn practical strategies for addressing ongoing issues, including mindfulness practices and other self-care activities to boost resiliency.
