What do you love most about your job?
My ability to assist people through life transitions is most rewarding to me. I always grew up believing that I could change the world but trying to figure out how was the challenge. By doing counseling, I have learned that if I can help improve the life of just one person, I have then changed the world for that individual as well as those they come in contact with. Essentially, I love that I am an agent for change.
What inspired you to start your own business?
The flexibility of private practice was the most appealing to me.
Why should our clients choose you?
Clients should choose me because they feel I may be a good fit. There are tons of therapist but what stands a therapist apart is their ability to relate to the client and be what the client needs to help them through their journey. To identify whether or not I am the best fit, I offer complementary consultation to allow the client to get to know a little bit more about me and my practice. This usually last for about 15 minutes.
Counseling
Individual Counseling
Individual counseling, also known as psychotherapy and talk therapy, is a collaborative process between therapist and client with the goal to facilitate change and improve  the clients quality of life. Individual counseling is for many different disorders and challenges including the perinatal period. Our screenings for the perinatal period assess for disorders such as postpartum depression (PPD), anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) to prevent potentially serious consequences. We provide additional assessments and screenings for mental health concerns and work with couples to facilitate healthier relationships and good communication skills.
Group Therapy
Group counseling provides an opportunity to share experiences, learn perspectives, and experiment with new behaviors in a safe and supportive environment. Many women find that group therapy not only provides the support they need but also allows them to finally realize that they aren't alone in how they are feeling. While we promote group therapy for many there are times when groups aren't appropriate for individuals which is why we have all potential participants complete an assessment for appropriateness.
Online Counseling
Online counseling services when combined with Cognitive Behavior Therapy, can be used effectively for a variety of clinical issues
from depression to anxiety and other experienced stressful events. Online counseling overcomes barriers that may keep some from seeking therapy such as limited mobility, limited access, busy schedule and for those uncomfortable with going to physically see a therapist in the traditional setting.
