“I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels.”
What was your path to becoming a therapist?
Therapy is my first career, although it took some time to come to this choice. I've always had a love for the human mind and a fascination with the functions influenced by our environments.
What should someone know about working with you?
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and reality counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I do assign homework. :)
What do you do to continue learning and building competencies as a provider?
I take annual training to keep myself updated on my specific areas of interest, such as trauma, CBT, LGBTQ+, DBT, and more as offered. Provider collaborations benefit clients as they increase resource availability and expose them to other possible useful supports.
