About me

Greetings
My name is Constance. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has been in the helping profession for 3 years and, I am pleased to say I Really Love this work. I thank GOD for this opportunity! I work with teens in outpatient settings, assisting them in gaining awareness and managing relationship issues, peer conflicts, anxiety and depression, building confidence and self-esteem. Asking for help is one of the hardest things you can do but, i assure you it is a rewarding effort. We will work together in drawing up a treatment plan, and develop strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your problems, improve communication skills, build empathy and respect, learn effective problem-solving and conflict resolution skills, and strengthen connections. As a therapist, I strive to help you connect to your authentic self in order to help you have more fulfilling experiences on your life journey. Finally,I view the therapeutic alliance as a partnership, requiring mutual trust, respect, honesty, communication, and commitment to do the work. I commend your courage for seeking help, and i'm here to support and empower you .

Miss Constance has been a fantastic therapist. She listens attentively and truly understands my perspective. My sessions with her have been profoundly enlightening, helping me to identify areas for improvement and recognize my mistakes.

Constance is a wonderful therapist. She has given me endless support and is always there to give me great advice. She learns about me from all aspects and keeps track of my progress. I can always count on her whenever I needed communication. Her knowledge of mental health is superb. She’s able to work with patients from all cultures because she truly listens. Her positive energy always puts a smile on me. I have been counseling with her for the past year and she has helped me grow to a place I couldn’t believe myself. She is my favorite therapist and I truly appreciate all of her help. I will always recommend her to whomever is seeking help.

Constance is my first therapist I’ve ever had. I’ve never taken therapy before and I’m so glad I did. I’ve learnt and grown to be a mentally more confident person. Also, looking at things in a different light and being more communicative with my feelings. I would highly recommend Constance. She’s not only a great therapist but also a friend.

Constance is an immediately warm and caring presence to meet and interact with. She impairs her wisdom and advice with clarity and is very much a humanist. She makes me feel understood and listened to but always thoughtfully comes back to important topics that I've brought up but may have forgotten. She has helped me make several important connections between my thought processes and daily life already, even just after two sessions. Thank you Constance for being a wonderful and passionate Counselor.
