About My Clients
I like to think outside of the box. I like to establish goals and I aim to bring about hope and establish goals, not just so we can get through current challenges, but to strive for a life worth living. My "Ideal client" is someone who is willing to take some potentially unconventional approaches to counseling. To specify, I have had the best success with those struggling with trauma, situational depression or anxiety, grief and loss, or those going through transitional periods.
My Background and Approach
I have nearly a decade of experience working with substance use/abuse primarily, though am also well versed in addressing trauma. As a Veteran with combat experience, I am gifted with both personal and professional experience with trauma, and navigating those unique challenges is near to my heart. Beyond that, my number one goal as a therapist is to be genuine. There are more intelligent, more professional therapists out there. But I promise to always be real, direct, and with a goal to find improvement and strengthen what's already within you to overcome obstacles and challenges. I like to laugh and hope to bring about a smile every time we talk.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in life and love. I believe that every time one door closes, another opens. I believe in cliches. Seriously, I believe in you and your own perseverance, and will often remind you of it. I believe we don't give ourselves enough credit for the daily challenges we overcome and hope to change that one conversation or one client at a time. I believe you deserve good things, and I believe I will tell you that ad nauseum.
