Introduction
Counseling allows individuals to better understand themselves and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. It is a personal opportunity to receive support and experience growth during challenging times. It is a key piece of the support system that will help utilize innate resilience and strengths. Counseling is a collaborative process that involves a confidential and professional relationship that focuses on personal obstacles. We work objectively to clarify issues, gain insight into thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and to deal effectively with these obstacles in a healthy way. My experience has focused on anxiety, depression, adjustment issues and trauma. I have worked as a school counselor since graduating in 2003 and own a private practice - Urban Balance Therapy and Consulting, PLLC - since 2020. I have extensive experience working with youth of all ages 5-18. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I recognize that it requires a great deal of strength and courage to seek out help. I will seek to understand. I will provide a safe, accepting, judgment-free, and comfortable place. I will work to help you identify your strengths and build upon them.
