About My Clients
I have experience with clients across the lifespan, but my focus now is adult counseling. I use traditional counseling techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing and solution-focused therapy, as well as complementary therapy approaches to help clients work towards greater happiness. Currently, I participate with the following CT based insurance plans: Aetna, Aetna Medicare, Anthem BCBS, Cigna, Humana, Humana Medicare, Medicaid, and Optium.
My Background and Approach
I'm a clinical social worker with over 13 years of experience providing counseling services. I have a upbeat, creative, warm and non-judgmental personality which clients report make it easy and natural to open up to me. I believe that therapy is an avenue to self improvement, healing and transformation. I see myself as a guide who supports clients in their journey of personal and emotional growth. I help clients become more self-aware, improve self regulation and coping skills, heal from previous stressful/traumatic experiences, enhance their communication skills, and understand their emotions at a deeper level.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I'm a spiritual and highly empathetic person. I was naturally drawn to becoming a therapist due to interest in helping and healing others. I empower my clients to make changes to improve their lives and have great success stories of people who truly transformed their lives while working with me. As for a little more information to help you get to know me better...I loves to travel. I think immersing yourself into a different places, cultures, and/or among diverse groups of people is a great educational experience. My dream is to eventually travel the world. I enjoy spending time outdoors; it helps me relax and feel more grounded. Most of my weekends are usually spent hiking or doing other outdoor activities. I am an avid crafter. I love to create. I experiment in making all types of crafts including jewelry, personalized gifts and art.
