Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Nutrition Fitness Specialist

Is this weird? I kind of find this process weird. I do not believe you can discover if you are a good fit with someone based upon a profile that you read online. Still, it is tool that can be helpful and one of the few we have available. I tend to ask my clients what they need and want, and help them find ways to get that. I do not know what you need to know about me? I am willing to share most things about myself and professional training experience if you ask. Trust is built over time; I would like opportunities to earn your trust.

A little bit about me… I have struggled with my own mental, physical, and relational health. I believe most people struggle in some way. My interest in being a therapist came from my treatment experience with an eating disorder, and the depression and anxiety that followed. I had to go through my own process of healing. I became a counselor to guide others through their own unique process of healing.

I do not believe one specific type of therapy treats all ailments, so I use an integrative approach when working with my clients, tailoring therapy to what works best for them. I believe that each person has the resources they need to heal and achieve their goals. My job is to help you tap into those resources by uncovering of the root causes of your struggles; identifying the barriers to change; and empowering you to move forward with a new perspective and skill set.

I would welcome an opportunity to meet you. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile.
