My approach I am here to provide empathy and understanding. I want to hear what you have to say. I want you to be comfortable talking with me, not worrying about judgment or embarrassment. My focus I am able to work with individuals who need motivation, expression of feelings/emotions, feel lonely in life, are stuck in life, are dealing with anxiety or sadness, or are having relationship troubles. I can sit and listen while offering support, or we can work on tools and techniques to utilize. My communication style As a provider, I offer empathy, compassion, and understanding. I have worked with children and adults and have come to realize that having someone to talk to can make a world of difference. I accept individuals where they are in life. My journey to mental healthcare During graduate school, I took an 'Intro to Psychology' class, and it just clicked. The subject matter came naturally to me, so I took it and ran with it. Several years later, I am still passionate about mental health. My goals for you I check in at the start of every session. We can reflect on progression or relapses. The client is the driver of therapy; I am the passenger giving direction. My first session with you During our first session, we'll build rapport.
