I am a Limited Liscensed Professional Counselor currently under the  supervision of a Liscensed Professional Counselor (LPC). For over 4 years I have worked with with college students to help them overcome academic stressors. I also have experience working with a wide variety of clients, from my internship in a psychiatric hospital. Many clients I have worked with were managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and substance abuse. Although I am educated in the The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V), I do not like to categorize people. I believe everyone is unique, and the DSM-V is a tool to help understand symptoms. Therapy is a collaborative relationship between the counselor and client. As a counselor, I am here to support and guide you to make positivie transformations in your life, rather than give advice. However, for therapy to be effective, the you will need to put in the effort to establish change. I will not push you to make changes; we can move at a pace comfortable for you. Whatever your needs are from this theraputic experience, I am here to support you.
