It is a privilege to come alongside clients as they journey towards healing and wholeness and it is an equally unique privilege to come alongside therapists as they transition from learning about therapy to putting into practice the knowledge they've acquired and becoming the therapists they desire to be! That journey is one that I would love to take with you! I had the privilege when I was a young therapist to have some amazing supervisors who helped me to grow and mature in my role as a therapist, and I hope to journey with you as you do the same! As a supervisor, I am committed to helping new clinicians to grow in knowledge, competence, and in professional identity. My role as your supervisor will be to teach, guide, empower, and consult with you as you encounter all the issues clients bring, as you face your own personal challenges in the therapeutic relationship with clients, and as you learn how to negotiate that relationship with both skill and compassion. I have been licensed as a professional counselor for 14 years, and have worked in behavioral health for 6 of those years. I have experience in community mental health, substance abuse treatment, and private practice. I have more extensive experience working with perinatal mental health. I have treated clinical problems including depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, perinatal mental health issues, personality disorders, bipolar, schizophrenia, marital issues, divorce, domestic abuse, parent-child relational problems, grief and loss, parenting, and more.
I primarily utilize perspectives from cognitive-behavior therapy, internal family systems, motivational interviewing, somatic therapy, Biblical counseling, and narrative therapy; however, I use multiple other modalities in treating clients as well.
