Hello!,
My goal is to provide a safe environment, in which you can grow, come to know yourself more deeply and to assist you with finding ways to relieve your current struggles. My counseling style is both educational and therapeutic. I believe with the knowledge and support, everyone has the ability to progress fundamentally health and achieve any reasonable goal. By finding out more about yourself we can find healthy ways to get your needs met and live your life more fully.
My work is based on these theories, Client- Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused and Motivational Interviewing. This means I work with individuals based on what is brought to the session without predetermined ideas of how it will help you understand the thoughts and feelings that may contribute towards a certain behavior. During the course of treatment, people will learn how to identify and change destructive or disturbing thoughts' patterns that have a negative influence.
I received a MA in Counseling Mental Health from Webster University. I am also Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Certified. I completed my internship at a Level 3 Residential Group Home facility and also provided in home therapy to lower income individuals and families. Prior to becoming licensed, i gained more experience working for a private practice where I serviced clients from adolescents to geriatric ,who had various diagnosis. I have ongoing trainings and certifications that i complete and maintain as the world is forever changing and i want to be equipped to handle all of my clients needs.
