I have an array of hands-on experience from initially beginning in healthcare and later transitioning into mental health. I received a master's degree in Marriage and Family in 2013 and a master's degree in Professional Counseling in 2015. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, anger, mood instability, and substance abuse. I believe that we all experience moments where we need additional support and someone to walk alongside us on our journey.
I am open to working with all clients in their journey to self-discovery, recovery, goal achievement, and management of stressors and trauma. I often focus on solution-focused treatment with cognitive-behavioral techniques.
It's important to remember that each person and situation is different, so strategies and interventions will be chosen based on the needs of each person.
