In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During the 1st session my goal is to make you comfortable and find information about you that can help us determine if we are a good fit. We will go over consent documents, your background and upbringing, current helpful practices and discuss any questions you might have.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I am a CPTSD survivor so I relate to my clients on a personal level and share with them approaches and techniques that worked for me since my 20s. My clients describe me as kind, genuine, compassionate, warm, caring, organized, punctual, and offering solutions that actually work. My clients achieve results and terminate therapy in general in 3-4 months as opposed to spending years in therapy; unless there is a significant trauma that was not addressed or if clients did not do my trauma work with a trauma-informed therapist like myself.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
trauma/PTSD (no acute), anxiety disorders including GAD, OCD, Panic D, phobias, chronic depression, love addiction and codependency, life transitions, narcissistic abuse, emotional/verbal/mental abuse, women's issues, stress, holistic health
Psychodynamic
I developed my own holistic approach that combines cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused therapy with hypnosis, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, energy medicine, and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).
