If you're reading this, then you have made a tremendously brave and important step in seeking self-betterment through individual counseling. Whether life can seem steady or unsteady at times, we all, nevertheless, lose track of our coping skills and rely on unhealthy habits and poor routines from time to time. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centric, Narrative Therapy, and the best evidence-based practices. My specialties include working with medical issues and physical health, intimate and romantic relationships, sleep disorders, bipolar disorder, gender identity, LGBTQIA+ support, multicultural and diversity issues.
In the first sessions, I like to get a flavor of what brings you to therapy and begin to develop concrete action items and strategies. Or, if preferred, explore directions with individual background or personal life narrative and context. In either case, I'm all about getting productive.
I try to utilize both warmth and a candid perspective in our sessions. I make a point to validate, but also to follow up on relevant inquiries. Learning and understand as much as I can.
I want to work with clients who are focused on exploring and implementing meaningful, actionable change for any challenges that currently take up space in their lives. I wish to utilize my clinical training and background to provide direction toward their goals. Client that feel interested and compelled to tell their story. I like to work with people who are seeking and expectant of change.
CBT counseling helps my client understand how their thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected.
