Made me feel comfortable to open up on my first therapy session.
I employ CBT to help clients identify and reframe negative thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress. By collaboratively developing coping strategies, clients can manage symptoms of anxiety and depression more effectively.
In supporting clients through grief, I provide a compassionate space for them to express their feelings and process their loss. I guide clients in understanding the stages of grief and assist them in finding personal meaning and acceptance in their experience.
I integrate mindfulness practices, such as meditation and breathing exercises, to help clients increase present-moment awareness. This approach aids in emotion regulation and reduces stress by encouraging clients to observe their thoughts and feelings without judgment.
I utilize motivational interviewing techniques to support clients in resolving ambivalence and enhancing their intrinsic motivation for change. This client-centered approach is particularly effective in addressing behavioral changes related to substance use and health behaviors.
I create a nonjudgmental and empathetic therapeutic environment, allowing clients to lead the direction of their therapy. This approach fosters self-discovery and personal growth, empowering clients to find solutions within themselves.
