What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I'd like to know what you want from the session and then I can meet you where you are at. If you just want to be heard and seen, I can do that. If you want some useful ideas to help you feel better, I can also do that. Just let me know. I'm here to help.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I can use techniques such as DBT which just means mindfulness. CBT is also good for people with stress. It helps us work on controlling our minds instead of the other way around. EMDR and ART are great tools to work with trauma. Person Centered which looks like I just want to be heard and seen today.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I've learned over the years that anxiety is caused by our minds. There are some easier tools we can use and implement to assist with reducing how much control our thinking mind has on us. I enjoy helping people reduce their anxiety and stress that came with negative thinking and perhaps past trauma.
