CBT is based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected. In our sessions, we will work together to identify thought patterns and beliefs that might be contributing to your difficulties. By understanding this connection, we can target specific areas for change.
I help you draw upon your cultural strengths and resources to address your mental health challenges. I also acknowledge that people from diverse cultural, ethnic, and social backgrounds may have unique perspectives, values, and experiences that impact their mental health and well-being.
I provide a supportive, non-judgmental, and empathetic environment, allowing you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
