Building a strong and trusting relationship with clients is one of the most valuable pieces of therapy. As a therapist, my main focus is to create an atmosphere of trust and respect by practicing empathy and a deep sense of acceptance. I strongly work on validating clients' feelings to each and every situation presented in session. Together we work on identifying unique ways to strengthen their skills, explore hopes and values and work towards the process of healing.
For the past 10 years, I have had the opportunity to work together with those who seek professional help when they feel stuck in life or when certain symptoms interfere with their daily lives. I have had the pleasure of working together as a team with them and do my best to guide them towards a road of recovery to be able to live life with intention and be the best version of themselves.
Prior to joining Quick Results Counseling, I was a therapist at a local mental health agency where I obtained so much experience working with youth and young adults, children and adults of all ages. I also worked at the local Crisis Unit helping those with immediate need of psychiatric assistance. For the past 4 years I supervised a Full Service Partnership program where we served the severely mentally ill. We assisted the local homeless population and we provided a large range of assistance for them and their families. The funds provided to clients who met the criteria for immediate need were offered help to pay their rent, bills, food, children's school supplies, clothing for the entire family, or any other items they needed to get them started into the road of recovery. These years were full of satisfaction, gratitude and wonderful memories as we were able to help our community in so many ways. I recently left this local mental health agency and have started to build my own private practice along with working with QRC.
I specialize in several areas such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, self-esteem, grief, stress-management, relationship issues, self-empowerment amongst others. I am certified in several evidence based models such as CBT, CPT, DBT, IPT, and MI. However, my goal in therapy is to start where my client is. I utilize several clinical skills that target clients presenting problems and their desired goals in therapy. I look forward working with you and together build a positive therapeutic relationship which will bring positive changes to your life.
