“I became a therapist due to a desire to assist others in their journey of healing so that they can live healthier and more fulfilling lives.”
What was your path to becoming a therapist?
I became a therapist due to a desire to assist others in their journey of healing so that they can live healthier and more fulfilling lives. I have experience working with clients from various social, ethnic, and economic backgrounds and I treat women, men, adolescents, children, the elderly, couples, and families.
What should someone know about working with you?
The intake process is simple: I’ll send a treatment consent and policy documents along with a brief questionnaire for the client to fill out and return once completed. Progress happens when clients make significant effort toward achieving treatment goals and their mental health improves.
What do you do to continue learning and building competencies as a provider?
I regularly take continuing education courses.
