New to Grow
I am a therapist who blends insight with action. I don't just sit with my clients in their pain, I help them organize it, understand it and respond to it. I commonly use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), but I use the modality that I feel, fit best for my client. I help clients work through their truth, which can be hard, but often essential to them reaching thier therapeutic goal(s).
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session will a calm and welcoming start. I will explain confidentiality and the therapy process. I will let you know what to expect and I will create a space that feesl non-judgmental but focused. We will then go through a the Biopsychosocial Assessment, which will assist me in creating a fuller picture of you. We will talk about next step, next appointment, we will recap and I will ask if you have any questions and we will end our session.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I am a great listener. I usually identify relational and behavioral patterns based around trauma and attachment quickly. I help my clients shift their perspectives without invalidating their experience. I offer structure. In summary, I make sense of your pain, break unhealthy cycles, and aid you in rebuild a more stable, self-respecting life.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
If you are taking the time to read this, then my ideal client is probably "you". If you are looking for someone who will listen without judgement. Help you make sense of things. Someone who will offer structure, clarity and usable coping skills. The one person who can help you steady your ship when things get rough, then please, come and see me.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps clients understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—and then actively change unhelpful patterns. In practice, using CBT in treatment means you’re guiding clients through a process of awareness, evaluation, and skill-building.
Interpersonal
Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) is a structured, short-term therapy that focuses on how a person’s relationships and social roles impact their mental health. It’s most commonly used for depression, but also helps with anxiety, grief, and life transitions.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
PCT is used to help clients grow by creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where they can explore their thoughts and feelings freely. Instead of directing the session, the therapist trusts that the client has the inner capacity for healing and self-understanding.
