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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

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

Having worked in the mental health field for over 10 years, I have learned that my greatest strengths are active listening, facilitating peace, and extending grace.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I enjoy working with individuals who are dealing with life transitions. My clients are ready to improve mentally and emotionally, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about where they are in life.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

In our sessions, I integrate CBT techniques tailored to your unique needs. This includes: Identifying Thought Patterns: Together, we’ll explore the thoughts and beliefs that might be contributing to your distress and examine their accuracy and helpfulness. Practical Skill-Building: I’ll teach you tools like mindfulness, self-compassion, and problem-solving to help you handle stress, improve relationships, and maintain emotional balance. Behavioral Activation: We’ll create small, manageable steps to help you engage in meaningful activities that align with your values, even in the face of difficult emotions.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

My training and experience with DBT have shown me how powerful this method can be in helping clients achieve emotional balance, develop healthier relationships, and handle stress more effectively. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can learn and practice the core DBT skills: Mindfulness: Together, we’ll focus on being fully present in the moment, reducing emotional overwhelm, and increasing self-awareness. Emotion Regulation: I’ll teach you practical strategies to manage intense emotions, helping you respond thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively. Distress Tolerance: You’ll learn how to navigate crises and cope with difficult situations without resorting to harmful behaviors. Interpersonal Effectiveness: We’ll explore ways to communicate your needs, set boundaries, and maintain healthy relationships. In addition to individual sessions, I often incorporate hands-on strategies like mindfulness exercises, journaling prompts, and real-world practice to ensure that these skills become a natural part of your daily
