What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My goal is for clients to walk away from sessions feeling heard and experiencing compassion. I work to provide practical tools they can apply to the symptoms and challenges they face in order to live life in ways consistent with their values and goals.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I use treatment methods that are appropriate for the symptoms or challenges the client is experiencing. I vue clients as unique and will tailor my approach to their needs. I use approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I feel my areas of biggest strength are working with clients who have been through traumatic experiences including children and adults. I feel I am good at developing a safe place for clients to share their experiences without fear of judgment.
