I believe that the foundation of effective counseling is the therapeutic relationship between client and counselor. A client needs to feel safe, accepted, and comfortable to do the emotionally challenging work that often arises in sessions with a therapist. We will collaborate on needs, interventions, and timelines to ensure progress on your identified goals. I incorporate humor, psychoeducation, and gentle confrontation in my work once we've established a strong rapport. In my years of experience treating diverse populations and presenting problems, I've found that each client has unique, individualized needs and no one approach fits all. Virtual sessions enable a client to seek therapy from the comfort of their home, but it is important to have a stable network connection and a decent microphone/camera. My evening and weekend availability offers clients the opportunity to seek care outside of normal working hours. I am only able to accept self-pay clients at this time. If you need help with the costs of therapy, reach out to me, and we'll see if we can work something out. If not, I'll make sure we find you a provider that works for your specific situation.
