I am a vibrant Child and Adolescent Counselor/Therapist with 7+ years of progressive
experience is eager to provide counseling and therapy services that meets the needs of the children and adolescents you serve. Since earning my degree I have had the opportunity to explore, practice, and challenge myself in using a multitude of counseling techniques and am especially skilled in solution focused, TF-CBT, and motivational interviewing, among others. I have been able to build excellent therapeutic relationships with all age groups of children I have served. It is my goal to ensure that every child/adolescent I have the privilege to counsel knows that I will accept and treat them with unconditional positive regard.
Past supervisors and coworkers have noted that I have a sincere commitment to the welfare of the kids I serve, as well as great talent for assessing individual needs and working cooperatively with clients, families, colleagues, and the community.
