Life offers so much to be enjoyed and known and shared. I offer a therapeutic relationship that is designed to help you live your life more fully. Whatever your struggle or pain, suffering can worsen when not having the support, information, or skills that can clarify how to work your circumstances to achieve the most optimistic outcomes.
Before graduating from Regent University with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, internships gave me a range of experience. Most recently, I worked with adolescents in a group foster home. Before that, counseling with adults with various types of Anxiety or Fear, Anger issues, Depression, and Relational conflicts enhanced my practice. Additionally, clients in nursing homes gave me opportunities to use creative techniques alongside Talk Therapy.
I provide Trauma-informed care and possess certification in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Also, I am trained in Anger Management Treatment.
My theoretical approach draws richly from Existential influences, Family & Social Systems, and Psycho-dynamic psychology applied in a Person-Centered way. For those who desire it, I can integrate Christian counseling into clinical care. Ultimately, all of life is a classroom for growth and improvement, whatever your age and circumstances. I hope to meet you soon if you think I may be a fit for your therapeutic benefit.
