What You Can Expect Here
What You Can Expect Here
I try to make my office as relaxing and nurturing a place as possible. During your visit, you can enjoy:
Natural elements like plants, cozy blankets, soft lighting, and nature sounds or classical music in the background
Paint, clay, paper, pencils, and more--if you're open to it, we can incorporate creativity into your counseling session. Expressing your emotions through creating can be very healing. You DO NOT need to be an artist or writer for this to be effective.
A safe, quiet, and confidential space to vent and process what you're going through, whether online or at an in-person session.
Outside of our time together, I frequently ask that you complete "homework" to practice the new skills we've discussed in our session. This might consist of trying out a new mental health coping skill, writing in a journal, reading something, and/or filling out worksheets. Each of these practices will help to cement what you're learning and the changes you're making.

A bit about me:
I started with a shiny bachelor's degree in psychology and worked in human services for several years. I enjoyed my job as a certified case manager very much.
Then, my career took a different turn and I owned an unrelated business for eighteen years.
During that time, my desire to help others--and finally see my dream of being a therapist--sent me back to school. This time, I earned a master's degree in social work.
I currently own a private mental health counseling practice, Creative Change, LLC. I am a pre-licensed therapist working toward licensure in Vermont. My clinical supervisor is Amy Little, LCMHC, (VT 068.0075195).
