More about me
Years in Practice:
10
State:
VA
I am licensed to work with those in the state of Tennessee, USA, with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with family conflicts, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, & depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths to overcome your challenges. Different situations can take place without our ability to feel prepared. You can take time for yourself and begin processing, in a safe and secure manner, through teletherapy services.
Everyone has their own walk in life. At any point in our journey, we each have a different view through our own experience. What you are experiencing is your reality. Others may not understand or may even feel frustrated with hearing your concerns. There is a time when it might be helpful to seek outside help. Meeting with a counselor means your privacy and confidentiality comes first. A counselor works with you and allows you time to process and identify steps you feel you can take to meet your goals.
I want to work with people to help them build insight into their life and feel more confident about their walk. People often struggle with feeling that their circumstance or themselves are “weird” or “crazy.” These terms are currently used more derogatory and self-depreciating. As humans, we each make mistakes, we each struggle at various points in life, we each have our abilities and strengths. We are able to press on and come through whatever challenge we may have. I want people to see their abilities regardless of the negative. I want to help those that have had horrible things happen to them, those that feel trapped in certain life situations, those that may just need some encouragement.
I have been trained in various therapeutic techniques and have found most relation in the Solution Focused umbrella utilizing Narrative therapy. Solution Focused therapy helps people recognize how to work towards what they want- including how Narrative therapy sees each person’s storyline from their past, separating themselves from their problem (instead of living stuck), and recognizing how they want their story to continue. I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) as well as other areas of therapy work.
Our reality includes the good, the bad, and the possible. Let me work with you on recognizing your abilities. I cannot say that I live a perfect life or will show you how to live the perfect life. I will work with you towards exploring what you have experienced in life and where you want to go. I believe each of us are successful, no matter what challenges we have been through. I believe in the power of humanity. There is a lot we do not have control of and a lot we can conquer together.
I am available for sessions Mondays and Tuesdays 9-5 EST, Wednesdays 9-2 EST. I will check messages throughout the weekday and respond as able.
About online counseling
Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
