I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor passionate about the therapeutic process.
In my early counselor days I was involved with youth at risk. I have worked with teens in a variety of settings from residential treatment, general and intensive outpatient, to the juvenile justice system. I have worked with juvenile drug court for three years. As well as working with teens in the foster and proctor care system.
I specialize in treating complex trauma and dissociative disorders. I also have experience working with addictions and eating disorders.
I love helping my clients, teens and adults, make sense of their life story while healing and bringing closure to past experiences.
As we work together my goal is to enhance essential skills including but not limited to:
- Assertiveness
- Self advocacy skills
- Manage life stressors
- How to feel safe and connected in relationships
- Identify and process strong emotions
- Increasing introspection and self accountability
I want my clients to leave counseling feeling empowered, able to accomplish their life goals and live a meaningful, fulfilling life.
