About me
I work from a collaborative approach to therapy, and view the therapeutic relationship as a journey that we embark upon together, as a team. I am down-to-earth, genuine, loyal and honest. Most of my clients tell me I am a lot like them or a "real" person. I believe in, promote and teach a work/life balance that people desire. My approach is client-centered yet interactive. I believe in the"Golden Rule"; treat others how you would want to be treated. I also love to laugh! Although therapy can be difficult at times, it can be fun.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology. I work with all age groups and issues from major trauma, depression and anxiety to the challenges, stressors and losses that arise in daily life. I will teach people effective tools to approach and manage the troubling situation they face.
As Owner of Barr Counseling & Associates, I developed a phenomenal team of dedicated specialists. We strive to create an effective and comprehensive individualized approach to counseling that embraces the changes our client's desire. Please visit our website for more information.
