Licensed Professional Counselor - Candidate
CurrentI hold a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Oklahoma. This degree has allowed me to pursue my goal of being a Licensed Professional Counselor. As a LPC-Candidate I facilitate space for individuals, families, and groups to process trauma and life issues in a safe way. I meet all clients with unconditional positive regard and welcome their experience in the treatment process. I prefer psychodynamic and person-centered approaches. I have experience using Internal Family Systems, Non-directive Child-centered play therapy, and Written Exposure Therapy models with clients. I also have several years of experience with substance abuse and mental health disorders as a behavioral health case manager II. I also have experience working with Native American populations from my time spent working on SAMHSA funded federal grants for substance abuse treatment and prevention in rural communities.
