I am a Licnesed Mental Health Therapist who wants to help each person find their own authentic voice in their life.
I seek to help each person find what sparks joy and provides meaning for each person individually.
First session
In the first session we will work to create a safe space for you to be able to show up as you authetic self and come forward with whatever has been holding you back. Each person has their own level of comfort and I seek to make sure that where ever you are at I will meet you and help you move forward in the direction that helps you grow and succeed.
Strengths
As a therapist my strengths lie in making each person feel a sense of security in their experiences and also provide each person with the push towards change that they want to see in their lives. I like to help people find their own voice and find the solutions that are sustainable for them in the long term.
Ideal clients
I want to work with clients who are motivated for change during a difficult time of their lives. I have worked with many adolescents and their families to create environmental change and improve their relationships with each other.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT helps people become aware of their negative thinking patterns and develop flexibility to view challenging situations in a more clear and helpful way to achieve your goals. Here you develop a better awareness of your thoughts, feelings and behaviors and find a way to listen to the patterns you find in these areas and create meaningful change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness therapy is used to help build present moment awareness to what you are experiencing and find ways to stay in the present instead of ruminating on the past or worrying about the future. Here we use meditation, breathing, and grounding exercises to increase your joy daily.
