Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a an evidence based therapeutic approach that is widely used. I have been using CBT to help clients ages 15 and up. It focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT is highly adaptable and can be applied to various mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, phobias, and stress.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing is a client-centered, collaborative counseling style designed to help individuals explore and resolve ambivalence about behavior change. As a counselor, I am a facilitator who works together with a client to explore their feelings, motivations, and barriers to change.

Psychoeducation is an essential component of mental health care, as it helps clients better understand their condition, treatment options, and how to cope with challenges. I provide clients with understanding the underlying factors of their mental health, develop coping strategies, and learn practical tools to improve their well-being
