My Approach to Helping
Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with supervisor credentials, located in Ohio. I have years of experience in community and office-based counseling, as well as tele-therapy. I have worked with clients from developmental pediatrics and adolescents, and teenagers through adults with a variety of presenting problems such as depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, anger, trauma, phase of life changes, relationship issues, family issues, and much more. I feel my proficiencies lie with teenagers, adults, and couplesfamily counseling. My approach leans toward solution-focused therapy, as I believe that unless the stressful issues that we deal with every day are resolved, we cannot focus on our mental health, because we are going back into the same situations that cause the issues. I encourage my clients to find hope for the future, for without hope, we cannot continue. I use a combination of supportive, cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, faith-based, and strengths-based approaches based on your needs. I believe that counseling is a collaborative experience, and I will work to help you identify your personal and mental health goals, while helping you utilize your strengths to live to your full potential.
