Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I hope you find value in details I have shared below! I am a licensed psychotherapist with a board certification as clinical supervisor. I have more than 16 years of experience as I approach almost two decades of post-secondary continued education after earning my Master’s degree. Listing professional accolades might provide a snapshot of my scope of practice-yet, therapists are multi-dimensional! As a practitioner, I prefer to describe how my personal & professional passions have intertwined, resulting in my purpose as a healer. Held closest to my heart is my love & commitment to motherhood. In addition is the field of counseling psychology-the origin of my credentials & training. Last but not least is recovery. I am intensely grateful for these three pivotal roles as I celebrate ten years of sobriety this year! If you’re interested in my clinical vision, career history or if you believe I could help you, please keep reading for an overview: Conceptualizing a practitioner’s theoretical style & approach is a known philosophical challenge of most psychotherapists. We spend much time helping our clients find healing. This requires us to master the art of grace, reflection, confrontation & reinforcement, among other skills. I am grateful for the time you have chosen to spend with any of my words. I find that my purpose as a therapist, closest to my heart is my authentic intention to hold myself accountable, as I do my clients. Any personality trait, knowledge or natural ability is highlighted by my own respect & intention in helping my clients find growth in their own healing process. Using personal conviction and empathic connection, my intrinsic values are no different than the expectations of my clients. Fundamental standards provide the right to no harm through the complexity of medical treatment-no matter the gender, culture, race, ethnicity or background. Objective clinical recommendations, just as accountability-are always included in that right to the best possible care of our patients in behavioral health. In addition to providing psychotherapy, I am honored to mentor clinicians as they provide therapy under my license during their own process. I first discovered my dream to formalize an ability to teach and lead therapists through licensure. This journey intensified my own love & commitment to the field of psychotherapy! My partnership with Betterhelp allows me to use a collaborative approach as an independent practitioner. Using a focus on small caseloads, I am able to commit to the needs & well-being of each client I have preselected. This allows me to individually personalize each unique therapeutic process. Most notable from feedback of my clients, I am attentive, nurturing, flexible, knowledgeable and direct in my communication. I find that authenticity is core to my identity as a person, just as transparency underlies therapeutic trust. I strive to prioritize the practice of grace. Reciprocal respect, genuineness & mutual acceptance are my intention in all relationships! My philosophical approach has evolved over many years of formal practice. Advanced training provides practice of techniques listed: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness & Internal Family Systems. At times relying on the use of Solution-focused CBT, TF-CBT. All trauma-informed techniques used as I continue to absorb all trauma theory offered. Naturally we develop our skills through hands-on experience, but true empathy, trusted intuition and a fundamental standard of requirements provide knowledge for appropriate evidence-based techniques using our theoretical framework. With specialized understanding in trauma recovery, I believe that YOU are the expert of your story, and only YOU hold the power to transform your life. My therapeutic role in this partnership is as valuable as YOUR effort. Your openness, honesty and responsibility of your growth & healing are fundamental to this process. I am able to provide support, validation and accountability as a guide. The process of these elements require an inherent balance. My faith adds a layer of unique impartiality to my role that is important to acknowledge. My spiritual beliefs intertwine with a self-awareness that transcends all mind, body and soul connections. I strive to navigate all relationships using trust & healthy attachment. Through this delicate spiritual balance, I believe all humans are capable of change. Using the structure of standard practice and evidence-based technique; only licensed psychotherapists possess an exclusive legal responsibility & ethical liability to provide safe, legitimate medical treatment. Verifiable benefit has been shown with the commitment of practice with a licensed practitioner. My ultimate priority as a licensed psychotherapist is to provide the emotional safety that ensures healing. NO obstacle is superior against the profound strength of human connection & individual willpower! An OPEN heart is the ONLY requirement! Join my wait list today!
