Introduction to the Clinician
I have worked in the mental health field for over ten years through my work in center-based outpatient care, therapeutic summer programming, community-based programs, and home-based services. Prior to my roles as a family therapist and clinical manager overseeing an intensive home-based family therapy team, I provided individual and group therapy along with recreational programming in an outpatient setting to youth and young adults.
All individuals have the capacity to strengthen their interpersonal skills, perspective, knowledge, insight, faith, self-understanding, and/or confidence to manage and overcome challenges with increasing independence. I offer unconditional acceptance to all clients, while placing a high value on neurodiversity and the individuality people encompass. My counseling approach pulls from elements of cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, behavior therapy, and solution-focused therapy through a strengths-based, systemic lens.
