My passion is to help people and I do this through a holistic approach in counseling sessions. I enjoy guiding my clients through their challenges whether it be eating disorders, substance abuse, interpersonal relationship issues, anxiety, depression, life transitions and more.
I enjoy meeting with my clients and strive to create a warm, compassionate environment. When working with my clients, my goal is to develop a comfortable, trusting therapeutic relationship to enable growth and change. I have worked with adolescents, adults, couples and families. I have over twenty years of counseling experience in various settings from inpatient to outpatient treatment programs.
I feel it is very important to meet clients where they are at and to assist them to learn to accept the challenges they are facing, to become happier. I believe working as a therapist is an honor and a privilege. It is extremely rewarding to be a part of that process to empower clients to change.
Why I Chose to Be A Therapist
When I chose this field I thought it would be a good fit because I could help people. Over the past 25-plus years of practicing, I have realized the field chose me. My journey has been so rich and I am so thankful to be in a position where people trust me to help them through the vast variety of life’s issues. I feel this profession is an honor and a privilege.
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.
