What is important to you, for your client to feel, when working with you?
It is important to me to feel as if there is collaboration on the client's end when working with me. It is important for my client to feel safe and acknowledged when working with me.
Who do you believe you are for a client as they manage their problems?
I feel as if I am a catalyst for change when working with clients. I do not take any credit for their change and prefer for them to be prideful for taking steps to change.
What drives your passion for seeing clients?
It drives my passion to see clients because I know it takes a lot of effort on different levels to take the initiative to receive mental health treatment. I want to be there for those that are strong enough to do so.
How do you believe clients "get better"?
I believe that clients get better by being proactive in receiving mental health treatment overall. I also believe they get better through collaboration of all their systems that they are part of.
