A majority of clients I work with struggle with anxiety, past trauma, depression, and relationship issues. Some goals that clients are usually exploring to achieve include gaining confidence, learning healthy coping skills, learning how to communicate with loved ones, and implementing boundaries. Our past can affect our future so exploring solutions to ongoing issues assists in the healing process. Clients may want/need to conquer obstacles that prohibit them from moving forward with their lives.

Life is full of events that help shape who we are. Some events that occur in our lives leaves us feeling hurt, alone, helpless, overwhelmed and can even bring us to question who we are or what we believe in. We are often left to cope with these events on our own. Many individuals self-medicate in a variety of ways to help cope, and get through life. Though self-medication can be a temporary solution, they are not void of lasting consequences that can negatively affect you or your relationships.

I have been working in the helping professions my entire adult life. I first became licensed over 25 years ago and have had the pleasure of helping many people over the years, both online and in my private practice. I have worked with individuals, couples and families seeking counseling and served as a supervisor to newly licensed counselors and therapists. While serving on the Faculty at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine as the Assistant Director for the Office of Clinical Services and Senior Data Analyst, I learned the importance of setting measurable outcomes and establishing goals for treatment.

Emotional supportive therapy in meeting my client's needs is paramount to their success. Not just listening to what they are saying, rather hearing what they are not saying to guide them in discovering their own needs. Working as a team to help them discern, process, embrace adversity and employ resiliency in the challenges they face. Guiding clients in an overcomer mindset, rather than being overcome. Teaching them how to be a human-being as opposed to a human-doing in order to find peace, harmony and balance in their whole being.
