About My Clients

When I work with a client, it becomes a collaborative effort. I want them to be able to excel in their lives, so I believe in a client-centered approach. Together, we will focus on and conquer triggers for substance use and abuse, depression, anger management, and establishing coping skills. Moving toward a more functional lifestyle is of utmost importance. I specialize in working with people who are ready to work on a more functional way of managing life.

My Background and Approach

I have worked as a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor since 2016, using many different approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. In 2022, I obtained my license as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience working with people from all walks of life, including individuals who are under the supervision of probation and parole.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I became a therapist because I was not able to convey in my own words that I needed help. I want to be able to help others who are struggling. I look forward to learning more about you so that I may possibly facilitate you in improving your own situation. You owe it to yourself to take that chance!
