What should a new client know about working with you?
Clients can expect compassion, empathy, and professionalism. I have over 15 years of experience providing counseling services in both individual and group settings, with a focus on substance use, addiction recovery, and family dynamics. I believe in meeting clients where they are, listening without judgment, and supporting them as they take steps toward positive change.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I begin by building a safe and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable sharing openly. Together, we identify challenges, set goals, and work collaboratively toward solutions. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and grief counseling, tailoring my methods to the unique needs of each client.
