We are all complex beings filled with unique experiences, emotions, and our own ways of handling stressful and unpredictable situations. From time to time when we don’t fully understand how to handle events that are going on in our lives, we need someone to walk with us through those tough times. As a mental health counselor, I want to walk with you as you navigate through your journey and help you find your way to the answers you are looking for.
I believe that each client is different and has their own unique story that they wish to tell, and because of this, I like to tailor the therapeutic approaches that I work from to meet each client’s specific needs. I primarily see children and adolescents, but I also enjoy working with couples and adults as well. My areas of clinical interest include anxiety, depression, eating disorders/body image issues, grief & loss, couples counseling, and trauma.
Why I Chose To Be A Therapist
Growing up, I watched my own family members struggle with mental health issues that went untreated. It wasn’t until I saw someone close to me reach their breaking point that I decided I wanted to be the person who helped others through their struggles. As I went through my schooling, I began to understand my own mental health struggles and decided to do something about them. Going to therapy was one of the best decisions I have made for myself. Having that unbiased person on your side to help you see things you cannot see yourself has been so helpful and beneficial to my personal well-being and overall mental state.
FAQ
1. How do I know which therapist is right for me?
If you’re unsure who would be the best fit, our team can help guide you.
2. How are your therapists selected?
When matching you with a therapist, we consider your needs and goals as well as the therapist’s experience and availability.
3. Will I have a real person helping me choose a therapist?
You don’t have to search through dozens of therapist profiles and try to determine on your own who might be the right fit.
4. Can I request a specific therapist?
If that therapist isn’t available or isn’t the best clinical fit, our team can help identify another therapist who may be appropriate.
5. What if my therapist isn’t the right fit for me?
If you don’t feel that your therapist is the right fit, we encourage you to communicate with us. Because we are a group practice with therapists who have different specialties and approaches, we may be able to help you find another therapist within our practice who better matches your needs. You should never feel that you have to stay with a therapist simply because you started with them.
6. Can I see another therapist at the practice if my needs change?
One benefit of a group practice is that you have access to therapists with different areas of expertise. Your needs may change over time, and your care can change with them.
7. What happens if my therapist leaves the practice?
As a group practice, we may be able to help you transition to another therapist within our practice who is appropriate for your needs.
8. Do I have to know exactly what I need before contacting you?
No.
You don’t need to know your diagnosis, treatment plan, or even which type of therapist you need before reaching out.
That’s part of what our team is here to help with.
Your mental health starts with you. Let us help you on your journey.
