you transition your mindset and navigate this space we call LIFE more successfully.
First session
My hope is that people leave their first therapy session feeling heard, understood, and a little less alone. I hope they gain a sense of comfort, safety, and reassurance that they have a space where they can show up as their authentic selves without judgment. Most importantly, I hope they leave with a sense of hope, greater self-awareness, and the understanding that they don’t have to navigate life’s challenges on their own. Therapy is a journey, and the first session is simply the beginning of that process.
Strengths
As an Eclectic Therapist (therapist who combines different therapeutic theories, tools, and styles rather than sticking to just one approach) who believes that there is no such thing as a "one size fits all" approach to the delivery of therapy, I tailor your treatment and goals to YOUR specific experiences and challenges.
Ideal clients
My ideal client would be any client who has gathered the courage to enter into a therapeutic relationship with the optimism needed to be empowered to improve their lives. Whether this is their first time, first time in a long time or first time with me, I encourage anyone to start the journey of reshaping the way they view and behave in their world.
Origin story
My belief is that often times people are reluctant to seek therapy because of the stigma associated with needing mental help. My desire is to strengthen knowledge, resources and support around mental health and to create an environment in which everyone feels supported throughout their individual journey. My goal is to provide culturally competent, holistic, and wellness focused support that addresses social and emotional problems that exist as part of living life.
Ongoing work together
Ongoing work together will be a collaborative and supportive process centered around your unique needs, goals, and experiences. We will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, creating space to explore challenges, identify patterns, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools to support your mental and emotional well-being. Some sessions may focus on processing difficult experiences, while others may center on growth, self-discovery, or navigating everyday stressors. I will provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, empowered, and supported as you work toward meaningful and lasting change. In addition, we will also regularly check in on your progress and adjust our approach as your needs evolve.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
My therapeutic approach utilizes multiple modalities, not just one, to create the best outcomes. I chose methods of therapy based on my clients needs, learning preferences, cognitive abilities, executive functioning and immediate/long-term needs. Those methods can change as the client's needs and therapeutic relationship expands and grows.
