About My Clients
I love collaborating with clients, watching them grow, and witnessing the breakthroughs they make. We all struggle at some point in our life, and often we have to carry burdens of the past, whether it comes from our families, past relationships, past trauma and/or adversity. Everyone should be allowed a safe place to explore life's challenges and determine solutions. Everyone is capable of change, but sometimes we just need a little help along the way.
My Background and Approach
Certifications and/or training: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Crisis Intervention and De-Escalation. My experience and specialities include mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma, grief and loss, and addiction. Modalities include, CBT, DBT, EMDR, and holistic approaches, as well as client-centered and solution-focused. Each person is unique and treatment needs to mirror this. I will always provide education and meet the client where they are at. I want to collaborate with the client and empower them to see their strengths, while approaching challenges together.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My belief system is simple. I believe that all people deserve a safe place to work through challenges. I believe that everyone should be treated with love and respect. Mental health and substance use issues are the result of maladaptive coping mechanisms. These coping skills, although negative, serve a purpose, and are the result of fear, pain, and adaptation to negative and traumatic situations that a person has had to maneuver through. There is always room for change, and there is more than enough room for people of all backgrounds and belief systems, to grow and evolve and ultimately work together. Collectively, we can overcome challenges and influence one another to be better and do better.
