Hello! I think one of the most important parts about choosing a mental health provider is to feel like there is a good fit between you and the clinician. I'll try to explain a few things about me and how I work, and I welcome you to email or call if there are any further questions I can answer. I take the therapeutic relationship very seriously, so I will spend a lot of time trying to get to know you, to understand what is causing obstacles in your life, and to identify what you would like to get out of counseling. I endeavor to provide an environment that is both warm and supportive, while also challenging you to try new things, whether that is questioning troubling thoughts or trying new behaviors outside of the session. We will work collaboratively together to determine the best way to address the concerns you are bringing to counseling. I have worked with college students for a number of years, and feel very comfortable working on many of the issues college students face, whether its relational concerns, adjustment issues, academic performance, athletic performance, or mood and anxiety concerns.
