I view the therapeutic process as a sacred alliance between the client and therapist where clients can access their inner strengths and promote change. I use CBT, educational, client-centered, and solution-focused therapies to assist in your processes. I accept clients where they are and tailor treatment to meet their individual needs.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll get to know each other and then we'll focus on your specific concerns, struggles and goals.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
CBT, ACT, Solution-Focused, and Motivational Interviewing, are some of the treatment methods I utilize within an eclectic style of individualized treatment.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Depression, Anxiety, Imposter Syndrome, Trauma, Life Transitions, Grief, ADHD, Addictions Recovery, Codependency
