Hey! I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor. I am dedicated to providing compassionate and evidence-based care to support clients in overcoming their challenges and living more fulfilling lives. Every client is unique, and I am committed to tailoring my approach to best meet their individual needs and goals. I look forward to hearing from you and exploring together how to support your mental health.

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

During your first session, you can expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where we'll discuss your reasons for seeking therapy, your goals, and what you hope to achieve. We'll discuss confidentiality. I'll ask questions to better understand your background, current challenges, and strengths. This session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other, establish rapport, and begin outlining a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

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

My greatest strength as a therapist lies in my ability to cultivate a safe and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients feel heard, understood, and supported. Through genuine connection and active listening, I create a space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment, fostering trust and facilitating meaningful growth and healing.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

In therapy sessions, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize and challenge negative thought patterns, identify unhelpful behaviors, and develop effective coping strategies. Through collaborative exploration, we work to reframe thoughts, modify behaviors, and cultivate healthier perspectives, empowering clients to better manage their emotions and navigate life's challenges with resilience and clarity.

Psychoeducation

I integrate psychoeducation to provide clients with a deeper understanding of their mental health concerns, treatment options, and strategies for self-care. By imparting knowledge about psychological concepts and evidence-based practices, I empower clients to become active participants in their own healing journey, fostering insight, motivation, and informed decision-making.
