About Me
Thank you for visiting my page! Feeling connected to your therapist is vital for developing a therapeutic relationship, so here’s some info that I would like prospective patients to know:
What was your path to becoming a mental health provider?
When I was a teen, I remember feeling constantly lost and overwhelmed by my own emotions. As a freshman in Highschool, II sought out the school counselor, who ended up not only supporting me through high school, but also encouraged me to support others around me through our "peer support" club. Being a support to my peers was such as fulfilling experience, that when I was a young adult trying to figure out where my life was going, I had decided that I was going to make a career out of supporting others!
What should someone know about working with you?
Session 1: Psychosocial Assessment: I will interview you and explore the different facets of your life, including your mental health history, family history, relationship history, and etc, to get a "full picture," of you as a client and the issues that your presenting to therapy with. This will likely take the whole session!
Session 2: Treatment planning: If we didn't have enough time on the first session, this session we collaborate in creating your treatment plan. Your treatment plan will consist of your long-term therapy goals, and the short-term objectives we will make towards them. We review your treatment plan every three months to assess your progress and make any necessary changes to treatment!
Sessions 3+: We will work towards the goals!
