My Approach to Helping
Life can be hard, and taking steps to support your wellness journey can be even harder. Whether this is your first time seeking therapy, or you’re looking to revisit your wellness journey with fresh eyes, I congratulate you for taking this difficult yet critical first step.
I work with clients aged 13+, and have experience supporting clients through navigating issues such as: I have experience supporting clients through navigating issues such as: ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, education and learning disabilities, peer relationships, life transitions, relationship issues, self-esteem, trauma, and posttraumatic stress (PTSD), and women's issues.
Although I personalize my treatment plans to the individual needs of each client, I primarily utilize the following modalities in my work: person-centered, psychodynamic, and attachment-based counseling. I also draw from my background as a Literacy teacher to validate the social and academic challenges my school-aged clients often face.
My approach to counseling is collaborative, and I encourage my clients to bring their goals, reservations, fears and hopes to our sessions to make their experience as personalized as possible. I want each of my clients to leave our sessions with a sense of optimism and confidence that will allow them to continue their wellness journey independently.
