Individual Counseling
My Services
Below are some of the services I offer. If you have questions, please feel free to reach out.
We can feel misunderstood and alone, even when we have friends and family surrounding us. When this happens it can be beneficial to meet with a counselor on an individual basis. I meet one on one with you to provide the individual focus required to fully understand the obstacles you face. I tailor my services and approach to your individual needs and goals, and provide you with the time and space to fully share and explore the circumstances that you may be facing.
Grief Counseling
Grief is a difficult emotion to navigate, and can color every aspect of our lives. It is also an emotion that can arise with any loss in our lives, not just the loss of loved ones. It is sometimes difficult to explore the feelings of grief alone or with our family and friends- and that is where I can help. By utilizing a compassionate and person-centered approach I can provide you the safety and space to explore your grief without judgment.
Anxiety/Depression Counseling
Anxiety and Depression are more common in our society than ever before, but that does not make the symptoms any easier to overcome or less isolating when we are struggling with them. I understand the intricacies of Anxiety and Depression, and am trained to provide you with tools and coping skills that can help alleviate your symptoms. Treatment is not a one size fits all answer. I am ready to explore with you the origins of your concerns and provide you with a treatment plan that is accessible for your lifestyle.
Trauma- Informed Counseling
Sometimes we have endured things in our lives that are unspeakable. Maybe you would like to explore what life would be like if you were free of the burdens of that which you cannot say. I approach the therapeutic relationship with intention, utilizing trauma-informed methods that allow the client to take up space and heal as their body and mind permit. Healing is not a destination, it is a journey, and I am happy to walk the path alongside you.
Neurodivergent Counseling
Symptoms related to neurodivergence can be crippling in today’s fast-paced and overstimulating world. There can be a lot of pressure to perform as “normal”, which can lead to substantial burnout. I utilize a bottom-up approach to counseling that can help process the additional stresses that come with neurodivergence, and provide you with tools that empower you on a day to day basis.
Group Counseling
We may feel that our life experiences are so intense that no one else can possibly understand. Group counseling can provide us with the reassurance that our pain does not have to isolate us. I am trained in group therapy techniques that can provide clients with additional perspective and insight, while connecting them with others. Though I do not have any groups running currently, I am always monitoring for areas of need in the community. Please keep an eye on my website, or ask to be notified if you have a specific type of group you are interested in.
Adolescent Counseling
The daily difficulties and experiences faced by adolescents are nuanced and ever changing. Issues relating to relationships, puberty, and self confidence are some of the most common areas of concern experienced by this group. I use an eclectic approach to meet adolescents where they are and provide them with the tools to articulate their emotions and issues of concern, empowering them and helping them navigate their lives.
LGBTQIA+ Inclusive Counseling
Individuals that identify as a part of the LGBTQIA+ community can have specific issues of concern related to their physical, mental, and emotional health. Having a counselor who is aware of the additional obstacles and barriers to care that LGBTQIA+ individuals can experience is imperative to receiving appropriate care. Clients do not exist in a vacuum, and therapy should not either. I get to know each client and the individual struggles they face in order to provide the best treatment possible.
Chronic Illness/Disability Counseling
Being a chronically ill or disabled individual presents a unique set of challenges that can be overlooked in traditional therapy settings. My approach is tailored to each individual client’s needs, and I am happy to provide my clients with support during the periods when they need it most. Your value is more than just your productivity, and I am here to help you discover what it is that makes you uniquely valuable in this life.
