What stops a person from growing mentally and emotionally? Could it be fear, past traumas or the uncertainty of the future? Even though growing can be challenging, the truth is that it is necessary. The questions then become, "How does one grow emotionally and mentally? Where do I start?" For anyone with these questions, counseling is an essential part of your growth. The growth begins with taking your first step by scheduling an initial session. Together, we will address the the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that are holding you hostage. The sessions will be designed to grow you into the emotionally healthy person you want to be.I have worked as a counselor in a variety of settings, including school, hospital, and non-profit. Currently, I work with adolescents, adults, and couples who struggle with anxiety, self-esteem, grief, trauma, and unhealthy relationships. I closely follow Cognitive Behavior Therapy, however I use a variety of techniques to assist with each client's healing.As your counselor, my goal will be to build a genuine and trusting therapeutic relationship by creating a safe and judgement free place suitable for you to begin to walk in your journey towards healing. If you are open and ready contact me and lets begin this journey of you learning to love yourself JUST as you are!
