About My Clients
The clients I serve are 16 years old+ and have an array of experiences that have brought them to therapy. My main area of focus has been co-occurring (addiction with another diagnosis) in multiple levels of care. I consider my specialities to be addiction, anxiety disorders, trauma, grief and loss, OCD, and relationships/communication style.
My Background and Approach
My approach is relationship building which I cannot stress enough. Without rapport and a genuine therapeutic connection (a potion if you may), limitations will naturally occur resulting in unmet expectations or stagnation. I feel strongly about intuitive decision making, existentialism, quality of life, incorporating your definition of spirituality, a person's environment and the felt impact, identifying generational patterns, and connecting with our ancestral roots for therapy to be dynamic and accessible, without judgment. As a social worker, it's important to note that our commitment and responsibility as a profession is to create, disrupt, and challenge systems in place that oppress and force compliance. Living life on your own terms and liberation is the lense from which I serve.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My personal beliefs come down to one basic understanding: the connectedness we share. With other people, animals, nature... any sentient being. We're reminded every day that in our world, there is still wonderment and awe that exist every day. It's a matter of finding those moments through open-mindedness, willingness, and turning inward to find to the universal truth. My mantra, tag line, slogan, or whatever label you want to use is this: You are the answer to the questions you seek.
