About
I enjoy helping others self-explore, learn new skills that create positivity, heal from past wounds, and mend relationships.
My overall experience is working with trauma events people have experienced that hinder current relationships. I also utilize training to mentor and teach other future therapists.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Advice - asking what challenges will the clinician be introducing and how can the clinician meet the client's needs. Searching for the right clinciian is like searching for a comfortable pair of shoes or a great fitting pair of jeans. The clinician is there to challenge personal growth, healing, educational moments, encouragement, recapping personal growth and so much more.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
What type of counseling is best suited for you. Some therapists simply listen and paraphrase, some give homework challenges, is there an agenda at the beginning of the session, how to maintain focus, who is leading the session (the client or the therapiist or is it a joint effort), is the client desiring to incorporate their faith. If married, will there be individual and couple sessions needed? If the family, will the therapist offer home-based sessions to observe family interactions?
