First session

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Strengths

I believe I am a strong provider because I have experience working with people from all backgrounds. I have worked in schools, hospitals, prisons, and private practice.

Ideal clients

I work well with clients who are experiencing transitions in their life, grief, anger, depression, trauma, and anxiety. I provide empathetic listening. skill building, and a safe place to process emotions.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I help clients recognize automatic negative thoughts and cognitive distortions that contribute to their distress. I assist patient's with increasing engagement in positive activities to improve mood and reduce avoidance behaviors. I help equip clients with strategies to effectively handle life challenges and stressors.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I use this to enhance a person's ability to be present in the moment, recognize and accept thoughts and feelings without judgment. I help people learn to tolerate and survive crises without resorting to harmful behaviors. I help clients generalize skills to various contexts and situations, ensuring they can maintain progress after therapy ends.
