One of the goals of counseling is to gain knowledge and insight into problematic behaviors, beliefs, feelings, and relationship issues. I believe that a person can come into the knowledge of self to regain control, motivation, and self-worth to reach their full potential. In this I believe in establishing realistic and achievable goals for individuals and families that will bring forth true freedom. I incorporate several therapeutic techniques and interventions that are designed for the individual client that includes but not limited to; person centered, brief solution-focused, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I am an intuitive and passionate licensed masters social worker skilled in traditional modalities as well as more progressive methods that considered influences such as clients' motivation, cognition, emotion, cultural identification, spirituality, and contextual stimuli. I have several years of experience working with those who battle with depression, anxiety, trauma, behavioral issues, alcohol and substance use. I am passionate about what I do in helping others help themselves. I look forward to working with you to achieve the goals you desire for yourself and I look forward to working with you on this journey called life.
