I am a provider at our South Hills clinic who provides therapy services in-person and via telehealth. My ideal client is a motivated individual that is eager to participate in the healing journey. I feel comfortable working with a wide range of clinical needs and issues including depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, existential dilemmas, relationship conflicts, self-esteem and self-efficacy, trauma, and grief. My ideal client attends therapy with an open and honest heart, sharing what they feel comfortable to share to heal. This client has a sincere desire to grow and learn more about themselves to increase their overall satisfaction with life.
I utilize a client-centered, existential approach that emphasizes safety, freedom, positive regard, and empathic concern. As your therapist, I plan to bring a wide range of ideas and theories into session to find what best works for you. From an eclectic perspective, we can work together to foster your healing journey with mindfulness and compassion.
As a counselor, I believe my role is to create an environment of safety and support using empathy, active listening, nonjudgement, and compassion. I believe each person has the ability make new decisions that bring about positive change and I hope to empower my clients to embrace this freedom through a collaborative, caring therapeutic journey.
