I believe teamwork is best; I cannot work harder than the client or family is willing to work. The ideal client is open to discovering underlying issues, possible problematic thinking patterns, along with personal strengths to help cope with their needs. A client who understands my role is not to judge them but support them; that making suggestions or observations to increase their self-awareness is part of our working relationship. Honesty from the client allows me to fully understand where they are in their life and the best approach for me to take in offering support.
My 5+ years of experience consists of providing caring and compassionate therapeutic services to children and their families with a variety of needs. Common areas I address with children and their families are anxiety, depression, life changes, trauma, anger and behavioral issues.
I’m very committed to my clients. I am passionate about providing support to increase their daily functioning and overall well-being.
