LCSW, 5 years of experience
Welcome to a supportive space for personal growth. It's a natural part of life to experience tough times, and finding the right support can make all the difference. My practice offers a warm and non-judgmental environment to explore what's holding individuals back. Years of experience have provided opportunities to witness clients make profound positive changes. I specialize in helping adults navigate challenges such as relationship issues, work stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief. The approach focuses on helping individuals build effective coping mechanisms so they can move forward with greater confidence and well-being. With the right support, individuals can improve their lives.
A warm welcome to therapy. Come as you are—this is a safe space. During your first session, we'll get to know each other, discuss what brought you here, and answer any questions you may have. Together, we will start building a plan for your goals. The therapeutic relationship is key, so we will also explore if this is the right fit for you.
A systemic approach to therapy is followed, along with CBT and/other treatments of care. To understand people and their challenges, it's important to understand the systems and relationships they are a part of. The therapeutic relationship is one of authenticity, collaboration, and feels safe and supportive. The client's strength and resilience is the focus.
I work with adult client's 18+ who are struggling with relationship issues, work stress, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and other conditions who are eager to improve their lives for the better.
CBT is used for a wide range of conditions to identify and challenge negative thought patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress with replacing them with healthier coping mechanisms. Client will engage in exercises and homework assignments.
SFBT is a short-term goal-focused evidence-based therapeutic approach, which incorporates positive psychology principles and practices which helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy is breaking away from negative thoughts and patterns, practicing compassion towards oneself, accessing one's own wisdom, increasing curiosity and decreasing judgment.
Humanistic therapy is a form of "talk therapy" that focuses on the client's individual nature, aim to consider the whole person, especially their positive characteristics and potential for growth.
Person-centered therapy is a type of non-directive therapy that is empathetically driven toward providing the client with a safe space to talk, self-actualize (realize your full potential), and make positive changes in their life.
