About
While I work with clients of all ages and needs, I spend a lot of time working with teenagers and young adults with depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders. I enjoy providing a safe space for clients of this age range to develop coping skills, discuss identity and self-esteem and address life changes and transitions. I enjoy assisting clients through past and present struggles and bringing both of these together to reach client goals. I believe that it can be difficult to work on the past if there are present day struggles taking precedent and help clients address immediate stressors or symptoms first. I currently hold an LPC in the state of Wisconsin and have completed a Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) course that I utilize with clients who request or benefit from these skills. I have also attended trainings specific to working with adolescents. I believe that all people have the necessary tools within themselves to be successful and that therapy can provide a helping hand in revealing these qualities. I approach clients from both a compassionate and empathic standpoint, actively listening and validating their concerns while allowing them to assist in guiding our sessions together.
