Hi, I'm Ariel! Thanks for considering me to walk this path of growth, healing, and self-discovery with you. I have worked in counseling and mental health for a decade and have experience working with clients of all ages and varied concerns. The majority of my experience is in university counseling, where I have fostered a love of meeting clients in a transitional stage of life, working to carve out their identity and future. I work with adult clients with many life concerns, but specialize in PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression. My theoretical orientation is existential, humanistic, and contextual, but I incorporate interventions based in CBT, DBT, SFBT, and mindfulness. I am certified to provide Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD by Strong Star Training Initiative. My counseling style is supportive, conversational, and gently challenging when you may need a loving kick in the rear. I want to help you capitalize on your strengths and resources to build a life you're excited to lead, even if that seems far away right now. I'm happy to offer a free consultation to put you at ease and make sure we're a good fit.
