Intern
Hi! My name is Sydney and I am a Mental Health Counselor in training at the Government Center clinic, offering treatment to all ages. I use an integrative approach for those experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and more. My goal is to prioritize your psychological safety and uphold your personal goals through active listening. Drawing on methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Liberation Therapy, and strength-based interventions, I tailor treatment to your particular needs. My ideal clients are those seeking to create change and become better adjusted to the demands of life.
Through a collaborative, nonjudgmental environment, we can identify strengths and challenges to promote empowerment and resilience. Through techniques like narrative therapy, I can support your journey as an individual and as a member of your communities so that you can tackle challenges with confidence and navigate life’s many demands.
I believe that your uniqueness is valuable. Through a balance between directive and nondirective approaches in my role, my purpose is to help you gain the means to take authority over your life through competency, advocacy, and overall thriving, whatever that means for you.
