As a Mental health counselor I provide holistic counseling to individuals, couples, and families. My approach to therapy is client-focused and directed, meaning you will have a great deal of control over the process. Treatment is tailored to meet the needs of each individual. Following the initial intake session, we will collaborate to establish the therapeutic goals for our time together and evaluate our progress and your satisfaction throughout the duration of our therapy sessions.
