LMFT, 9 years of experience
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), my objective is to provide quality therapeutic services to individuals, couples, and families. With a strong foundation in evidence-based practices, I strive to foster a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their emotions, challenges, and goals. I work diligently to understand each individual's unique needs and circumstances. By utilizing various therapeutic modalities and techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and family systems theory, I aim to facilitate personal growth, improve interpersonal relationships, and enhance overall well-being.
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.
I draw upon a range of established treatment methods and tools, primarily focusing on evidence-based practices. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which explores the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, empowering clients to modify unhelpful patterns and cultivate healthier responses. Additionally, I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which enhances emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. For individuals who have experienced trauma, I utilize Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a specialized approach designed to foster healing and resilience.
By integrating these evidence-based modalities, I aim to provide clients with a comprehensive and tailored therapeutic experience. Each technique is carefully selected based on the client's specific needs and goals, fostering meaningful progress and lasting change.
I embrace cultural diversity and recognize the significance of cultural factors in shaping individuals' lives and relationships. By integrating cultural competence into my practice, I aim to create a therapeutic space that is inclusive and affirming for all clients.
