I believe therapy is most effective when one develops a relationship with a professional where you can feel heard, understood and safe to process and learn tools to resolve limiting beliefs, emotional triggers and negative habitual behaviors that are self-defeating. Reaching out for guidance, encouragement and support can be the initial step toward changing your way of life and living to your fullest potential. With my direction and use of evidenced-based practices, together we can enhance your relationships, help you to deal with loss, adjust to a new phase of life and restore yourself to reach optimum emotional, behavioral and physical well-being.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Upon your initial visit, you will be greeted warmly and welcomed into a non-judgmental and caring environment where your needs are given the utmost importance. I have a passion to help others and pride myself on using strategies that encourage and support each client's individual and unique journey toward positive change.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I use Cognitive-behavioral therapy tools in which we work together to examine the thoughts you have when you're feeling down or anxious. We'll explore whether these thoughts are accurate or if they're influenced by biases or automatic negative thinking. By identifying these patterns, we can then work on changing them, which can lead to a shift in how you feel and behave. I also use Mindfulness strategies which involves being fully present and aware of your thoughts, emotions, and sensations in the moment without judgment. It's a way to observe your thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them or reacting impulsively. Mindfulness tools can greatly complement CBT by helping you manage difficult emotions and enhance your self-awareness.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
In my practice, I specialize in providing holistic support for individuals navigating through grief, anxiety, depression, chronic pain and adjustment to phases in life. Life is full of transitions, and these challenges can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. My approach is centered around creating a safe and compassionate space where you can explore your emotions, develop coping strategies, and discover a path to healing and personal growth.
