What should a new client know about working with you?

When you start working with me at Safe Harbor Therapy Group, you can expect a warm, empathetic, and supportive environment where your unique experiences and needs are valued. I prioritize creating a non-judgmental space where you feel safe to express yourself openly. My approach integrates Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Gestalt Therapy to tailor our sessions to your specific goals and challenges. I believe in the power of collaboration and will work closely with you to identify and achieve your personal goals. With over a decade of clinical experience and specialized expertise in military counseling, trauma, stress management, and cult-related issues, I bring a wealth of knowledge and understanding to our sessions.

Together, we will navigate through your challenges and celebrate your progress, ensuring that you feel supported every step of the way. My mission is to empower you on your journey to mental wellness, helping you achieve meaningful and lasting change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My typical process for working with clients at Safe Harbor Therapy Group begins with an initial consultation where we discuss your concerns, goals, and relevant background information. This helps me understand your unique situation and determine the best therapeutic approach for you. During this first session, we will establish a comfortable and trusting environment where you can feel safe sharing your thoughts and experiences. Once we have a clear understanding of your needs, we will collaboratively set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals and create a personalized treatment plan. I integrate various therapeutic approaches, including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Gestalt Therapy, to tailor our sessions to your individual needs and preferences. Throughout our work together, I maintain a supportive and non-judgmental environment, encouraging open communication and active participation in your healing process. I regularly check in on your progress and adjust our approach as needed to ensure we are meeting your goals. Humor and empathy are key components of my practice, helping to foster a positive and engaging therapeutic experience. My mission is to guide you through your challenges, celebrate your successes, and empower you to achieve lasting mental wellness. Together, we will navigate your journey towards personal growth and meaningful change.
