I have been practicing in the field for 4 years and am continuing to grow and evolve. My ideal client is someone motivated for change and understanding of self. I primarily work with clients (16 years old+) who are high schoolers, college-aged, and young adults trying to navigate the world. I am currently a doctoral student in Counseling, Education and Supervision and am always learning new treatment interventions through an anti-oppressive lens. I greatly enjoy helping people understand and manage their symptoms related to anxiety, uncertainty, imposter syndrome, motivation and identity.

You lay in bed staring at the ceiling. Sleep won't come. You try to slow your racing thoughts but it’s useless. They are with you all the time, endlessly worrying about everything. That voice in your head won't shut up. It feels like there is so much to do but not enough time. Time is moving a mile a minute. It's becoming more difficult to concentrate at work. Relationships with your family members and friends become strained. It’s hard to remember the last time you felt really happy and not stressed out. You don’t feel good about where you are in life, but you’re unsure how to make a change, and it's exhausting.

To me, the ideal client is someone who is willing to learn about himself: to come to realize his assets and to confront and transcend his limitations. The ideal client has the courage necessary to make the difficult decisions that it often takes to move forward in life. The ideal client sees a sense of purpose in what he goes through, and has the drive necessary to find a commensurate sense of meaning with respect to his circumstances.
