As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, my counseling style is warm and interactive. I treat all clients with empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard. I believe the client-therapist relationship is key to successful therapy and that building trust is essential. My approach combines emotionally focused therapy and client-centered therapy. I also utilize techniques from motivational interviewing and dialectical behavioral therapy. I believe that therapy should be client-driven, and will therefore work with you to create a treatment plan with specific goals and objectives to meet your specific needs.
I received my Master of Arts in Human Development Counseling, specializing in Marriage, Couples, and Family therapy from the University of Illinois at Springfield. I have experience in both outpatient mental health and residential dual diagnosis treatment settings. I have experience working with individuals and couples.
I work with adult individuals and couples with a wide range of concerns, including: anxiety, depression, trauma, coping skills, relationship issues, codependency, self-esteem, stress, life transitions, dual diagnosis, communication issues, and substance abuse. I look forward to helping and supporting you along your journey.
