This is a virtual tele health practice primarily for adults who are ready for change. If you are searching for a Counselor, then you have already started! Change is a process that begins with a mindset that results in action. Like anything, the more you put into it, the more you get out of it. The focus of counseling would be on identifying needs, goals and strategies to increase social competency, self-esteem, problem-solving, conflict resolution, coping skills, and communication. Issues addressed include stress, anxiety, family, conflict, emotional regulation, self-esteem, special needs, and executive functioning skills.
I use a direct approach, paired with dedication, compassion, and humor. My main goal is to empower you to make positive changes in as comfortable setting as possible. Focus will be on identifying patterns that do not work, and replacing strategies that will work more effectively.
Every individual is different. I start where the client is, identifying and assessing; goals, priorities, cultural norms, values, feelings, and your communication style. We will work together for you to gain insight into your strengths and challenges, and patterns and perceptions that guide you. I am truly passionate to assist you through this process.

I typically facilitate CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) that focuses on the cycle of thoughts, emotions and behaviors. My approach is very solution focused, utilizing one's strengths, problem solving strategies, increasing self-esteem, and improving coping skills while exploring dysfunctional patterns of the past and replacing those with healthier ones for the present.
