Therapy is essential when your therapist is as invested in you as you are in your own healing process. Many positive feelings and outcomes can occur when you feel prepared to handle the challenges that await you within the therapeutic process. Preparation includes predictability and practicality – two necessary concepts in my approach to solution-focused therapy. When we feel out of control of what others think or feel, or are in situations we feel defenseless in, we need to remember what we can control. We can solve our own problems and achieve our goals with the right mindset and plan of action.

For 16 years, I have mainly helped high school students transition into their college journeys through assessment and reflection in self-advocacy. This has helped my students successfully convey their thoughts and goals through college admissions essays, personal statements, appeal letters, and cover letters. Likewise, I have assisted in creating and editing admissions resumes, professional resumes, and military biographies. The journey to college can involve heightened emotions, questioning oneself, unpredictable occurrences – all interfering with the process to achieve goals. Therefore, I have helped students and families through tough divorce and custody situations, sudden loss, and expectations falling short. My counseling experience has evolved within that time to aid children, adults, couples, and families through a variety of issues and goal setting.

My overall mission is to help my clients discover the tools and skills they innately have to handle such challenges through therapy. When self-actualization for my clients is achieved, then therapy has been proven to be a worthy investment and they are better able to achieve their goals.
