As a seasoned therapist, I have a broad range of clinical experience working with individuals, groups, and families concerning Depression, ADHD, Substance use, Crisis Intervention, etc.
Let's face it, LIFE in and of itself can be challenging and stressful. My goal here at Elevate M.E. Counseling is to assist clients with embodying self-awareness, and achieving a higher level of emotional and mental standards while reflecting on their past, current, and future opportunities. Clients will be guided to implement these tools to overcome past obstacles and potential barriers to moving forward. The ultimate goal is for clients to envision the transition of previous challenges upon entering therapy, to opportunities that will provide elevation towards their future goals and self. Resulting in self-fulfillment.

My ideal client would be someone that has been fearful of coming to therapy due to previous trauma as well as the stigma attached to therapy within our community. Clients that are afraid to come to therapy require extra grace and understanding.

Intervention Therapists
How does an intervention work?
An intervention is a planned, structured meeting in which a person’s family or friends voice concerns about the person’s behavior and its consequences; the goal is for the person to accept treatment. In this meeting, the person’s loved ones (often with the guidance of a trained interventionist) share how the person’s behavior has harmed them and the consequences if the person refuses treatment. They collectively ask the person to accept a proposed treatment plan.
How effective are interventions?
There isn’t extensive research on the efficacy of interventions, in part because success is difficult to measure. Individuals often enter addiction treatment after an intervention, for example, but treatment itself may not work, especially if the person only begins due to external pressure from others rather than due to internal motivation to change. However, if all other attempts at helping someone have failed, an intervention may be worth exploring.
What are the limitations of interventions?
While a friend or family member’s intentions are in the right place in wanting to help a loved one through an intervention, there are significant limitations to the approach. The surprising nature of the event can make the person feel ambushed or judged. They may feel embarrassed or ashamed as a result, and relationships may be strained or broken. This can make it difficult for the individual to be receptive to the concerns of their loved ones and the interventionist.
Are there alternatives to interventions?
Rather than confronting a loved one through an intervention, an effective and less pressured approach is to create space for a caring, open, one-on-one conversation. This works best if the loved one asks open-ended questions, listens attentively to the answers, and frames their observations and statements with concern rather than judgment. More than one conversation may be needed, but change can take root over time.
