First session
On our first session, we will start by getting to know more about your presenting problem and who you are as a person. Once we get a clear picture of your needs, we will have a talk about goals and the areas of yourself you'd like to improve. Finally, we will talk about your triggers, and interventions, that can help improve your symptoms for the upcoming week.
Strengths
I am a hands on therapist who isn't scared of exploring deep subjects and providing feedback.I truly care about my clients and want them to succeed. I personally believe the change in therapy happens when you connect to your therapist, my goal is that we have an organic connection which will drive you to trust my guidance. I have broad experience in all mental health related diagnosis. I am most passionate about seeing your progress and helping you reach your goals.
Ideal clients
I specialize in working with adults between ages 18- 55 years old, who are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their lives.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I practice cognitive behavioral therapy which means I help you understand how your thoughts and inner mind chatter impact your behavior, emotions and relationships. In this modality, I help you reconstruct the thoughts that are limiting and help you adapt more positive patterns of thinking. CBT emphasizes what is going on in your current life, rather than what has led up to your current difficulties. Some information about your history is needed, but the focus is primarily on moving forward in time to develop more effective ways of coping with life and your challenges.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
In this approach I recognize the importance of a client's cultural background in order to provide effective treatment to all patients.
EMDR
Emdr is a great therapy for trauma based disorders. It helps reconstruct and deconstruct stories we adopt via the traumatic experiences. We use a series of interventions to help clients feel less triggered by trauma memories.
Christian Counseling
In Christian counseling a licensed counselor integrates spirituality into traditional counseling methods and psychological principles.
