In your first therapy session with me, you can anticipate a warm and non-judgmental environment where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings. We'll begin by getting to know each other and discussing your goals and what you hope to achieve through therapy. This initial session is an opportunity for us to establish a strong therapeutic relationship, and I'll explain the therapeutic process to you, addressing any questions or concerns you may have. Together, we will work collaboratively to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and circumstances. Your comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I'm here to support you every step of the way on your journey towards healing and personal growth.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based therapeutic approach that focuses on identifying and restructuring negative thought patterns and behaviors to improve emotional well-being and enhance coping skills. In my practice, I use CBT by first collaboratively exploring the client's specific thoughts and beliefs contributing to their distress, then teaching practical strategies, such as cognitive reframing, behavioral activation, and mindfulness techniques. This structured, action-oriented approach empowers my clients to effectively manage anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges, leading to lasting positive changes in their lives.
