My treatment methods

Humanistic

My practice emphasizes fostering a safe and non-judgmental space, where individuals can explore their inner selves, confront past traumas, and find healing through self-awareness and self-compassion.

Trauma Informed Care

With over a decade of mental health experience, my work began with trauma informed care. As a social worker I have worked in a multitude of settings that required training and implementation of trauma centerd work with adults, children and families alike. Currenlty I am being certified in Somatic Experiencing which explores trauma from a somatic or body and nervous system approach. My trauma framework centers around traumas specific to living in a western context and the impact it has on indivduals overall self concept as well as the ancestral/generational impacts of these experiences.

Integrative

Throughout my practice, I integrate various modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Existential Therapy, and Transpersonal Psychology. My interventions aim to empower clients to overcome challenges, gain clarity, and cultivate a greater sense of self-awareness and spiritual connection.
