Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In the first session, I will listen to why you have decided to come to therapy. I will ask what your needs are and we will develop a plan to help you meet your goals.
The treatment methods and tools I utilize
My approach is person-centered, therefore I utilize treatment methods that best meet your needs. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused-CBT, Solution Focused and Motivational Interviewing. I incorporate videos, worksheets and homework if and when needed because understanding the "why" is crucial.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My biggest strength is in helping individuals find their authentic selves. I believe in encouraging clients to dig deep to get to the root, tossing out what is no longer needed and growing into a healthier version of who they are purposed to be.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I focus on women with trauma, multigenerational trauma, domestic violence and abuse, and anxiety.
