Therapist Overview
Welcome! I’m glad you made the decision to seek counseling and I look forward to helping you reach your therapeutic goals. Counseling is more than just talking or solving problems. It’s a process that requires commitment, transparency, and honesty- for the client and the therapist. Counseling can lead to increased self-awareness, a better understanding of behaviors, and peace regarding your past. It can help you discover your purpose, improve relationships, develop better coping skills, and find hope in stressful situations. Counseling can be challenging and consists of taking an in-depth look at yourself. However, it is worth it! My counseling philosophy stems from person-centered therapy where unconditional positive regard, empathic understanding, and congruence between counselor and client take precedence. I believe positive change can occur in the context of healthy relationships. And if after our first meeting, we don’t “mesh” I’m happy to help you find another counsel
