What inspires me to work in the field of mental health care is the profound impact it can have on individuals’ lives. With my background as a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) and my extensive experience in trauma centers, I have witnessed firsthand the resilience of clients who, despite facing significant challenges, can begin to heal and thrive through therapy. The opportunity to be a part of someone’s journey toward healing and empowerment is both humbling and motivating, and it continues to inspire me to contribute meaningfully to the field.

To ensure that clients feel heard and understood in sessions, I prioritize creating a safe, non-judgmental space where they feel comfortable expressing themselves. I use a humanistic approach, which focuses on empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard, allowing clients to share openly without fear of judgment. By working closely with individuals, couples, and families, I help foster a sense of trust and connection that is essential for effective communication. Whether I’m working with a family or a couple, I make it a point to listen attentively, validate their feelings, and help them develop the skills they need to communicate more effectively and build stronger relationships.

Building trust and a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients starts with creating a safe and compassionate environment where they feel supported in addressing their past and present traumas. I believe that trauma begins at birth and continues to manifest in different forms throughout our lives, so it’s crucial to approach each client with empathy and understanding. By acknowledging that they are not alone on their healing journey, I help foster a sense of connection and collaboration.
