Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPCA)

Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor

As a seasoned licensed clinical mental health counselor, I offer over a decade of experience in supporting clients who have experienced trauma. My approach hinges on providing the necessary tools and support to navigate the complex journey of healing from traumatic incidents that often have profound effects on mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing, leading to issues such as addiction, depression, and anxiety. The road to recovery can be challenging without help from a professional - that's where I come in.

With a deep commitment to holistic care, my counseling methods are thoroughly respectful and considerate of each client's individual needs, values, and beliefs. Understanding the value of spirituality and faith in mental and emotional health, I offer the option to incorporate these elements into our counseling sessions.

The initial session with me aims to establish a comfortable environment where we can identify your therapy needs and discuss potential therapeutic strategies. This is followed by the creation of a personalized treatment plan, outlining our therapy goals, methods, and anticipated results. I encourage open communication during our sessions, and by the end of the first one, we will have built a solid foundation for our therapeutic relationship.

My services are distinguished by my unique skillset in therapeutic sessions and an unwavering commitment to trauma treatment. To ensure my techniques are up-to-date, I regularly study the latest research and methods in trauma therapy. I currently utilize trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I'm also working to expand my offerings by training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
