Approach:

My approach to counseling is based on the premise that empathy, trust and collaboration between client and counselor are a must for positive change to occur. I believe that we all need a purpose and to feel worthy. It is my goal to help with these things. We will work as a team to help you develop effective tools to become the best version of yourself.
My experience with children, adolescents and young adults has shown me that many times, we need someone else to help motivate us, believe in our abilities and even challenge our beliefs and thoughts about ourselves. To grow and function at our highest level, a trusted person can facilitate this change. A counselor can serve as this model, facilitator and role model to lead us to a more meaningful happy life. During our sessions we will work together to find out which parts of life are a struggle and develop goals within these areas. I like to use a combination of theories based on situation and client needs.
