I have been practicing and helping people of all types and ages feel much better, and become the best versions of themselves.
The most important thing, is that you have taken the first step and are motivated to improve your ever changing life experience.
First session
In your first session I will hear your story and your unique challenges. You will finish the session feeling heard, and gain quality insight from my feedback.
Strengths
My greatest strength is optimism, and holding the hope for you even when things feel bleak. Additionally, we can work together to sort out the core roots of what is difficult for you to cope with, and feel better.
Ideal clients
I am here to serve individuals. You are my priority. I believe in hope, and positivity. In therapy, I focus on helping you define your immediate, and long term life goals. Our work together will help you find your path and feel good walking that path, with me illuminating your unique journey. Many patients have described me as joyful, soulful, insightful, and kind. I am dedicated to my clients and once you are a client I can be flexible with my schedule and availability to accommodate your needs, and make therapy fit into your life.
Origin story
When I was 17 I had a not so good one who fell asleep like 15 minutes into our session. I walked out of the office and vowed if I ever became one, I'd never be like that. It is an honor to hear my clients, a true privilege.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have practiced many years, with significant experience helping clients to develop positive, alternative thoughts, to replace negative distorted thoughts (doing this makes you feel better), it is specific measurable help. "It helps people who cannot stop thinking about painful things, in a negative way."
Narrative
I have many years and thousands of hours doing therapy to help clients to "re-write, or re-author" how you remember parts of your life to see it in a healthy way.
Couples Counseling
Many years helping couples to re-bond, & repair their love, loyalty and respect for eachother.
Faith-based therapy
I have had many years experience, with clients in many different faith, and religious beliefs, who value incorporating their belief systems into therapy. This is a highly specialized psychotherapeutic experience customized to each individual and their beliefs. It honors a persons unique understanding and faith. It helps them to verbalize their understanding and become in alignment with their belief system, and their best and highest self. I can begin each session with breath work, meditation, and positive affirmations; or if a client has unique practices such as prayer, or mantra, which help them to focus, those can be incorporated as well. An individual and their choices are honored and respected while collaboratively incorporated into the psychotherapeutic experience.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have many years experience assisting clients with personality disorders, and those resistant to care to improve social integration and self love.
