I’ve been a licensed professional counselor (LPC) since 2012 and worked with children, families and adults in a variety of settings, both with mental health and substance abuse issues. Like most therapists, I enlist a mix of approaches in my work, but I find that above all else, the relationship between therapist and client is the most effective agent for change. I’m a staunch advocate for my client and take their goals for therapy very seriously. Sometimes that means challenging the way clients think and act and helping them to consider different perspectives.
