Hi! My name is Ariela.
kjsdjfkdsjkfl
I am a Clinical Mental Health Counseling Student at William & Mary. My experience includes working with college students, individuals dealing with substance use, and those in crisis.
"Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or a loved one, I am here to walk alongside you with empathy and care."
Personal Philosophy
My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based support to individuals navigating mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, and substance use. I believe that the best approach is one that is tailored to each client's unique goals and needs.

As a trauma-informed counselor, I prioritize understanding the impact of trauma on mental health and fostering a sense of safety and trust in the therapeutic process.

My work is grounded in the belief that healing is a process best supported through understanding, respect, and collaboration. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel empowered to explore their thoughts and emotions. By incorporating a variety of therapeutic modalities, I aim to help individuals develop resilience, foster self-awareness, and achieve lasting well-being.

In my free time, I enjoy testing local coffee shops, exploring nearby nature, and peaceful evenings spent sinking into my couch.
