I am a dedicated professional who works tirelessly to meet the needs of my clients. With a focus on relationships and exploring options, I strive to deliver exceptional service in all aspects of my work. My goal is to build strong, long-lasting relationships based on trust and mutual respect. I like to explore the history of an issue and its relationship to you.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During their initial session, you can expect to discuss their reasons for seeking therapy, your goals, and what you hope to achieve through therapy. I am going to attempt to explore the issue that brought you to therapy, its history, and its influence on your life. I like the solution-focused approach but acknowledge its limitations. This first session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about the therapeutic process. The first session is about establishing a fit I believe that it's difficult to be open with someone you don't trust, I try to build trust and relationships in the session.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a provider? I am open, I am easygoing but professional. I am congruent in my speech and presentation. My greatest strengths as a therapist are my ability to listen actively and empathetically, my strong communication skills, and my genuine desire to help others. I am also adept at creating a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients, and I have a diverse set of therapeutic techniques and approaches to meet each client's unique needs.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Adlerian
I primarily use the adlerian approach as I feel it is difficult for a person to be honest and receptive to change if there is no congruence between the therapist and the patient. My approach is primarily driven and predicated upon a successful clinical relationship being developed within the first 2 sessions. Put simply, most people dont open up and be honest with themselves if they dont feel safe and like they can trust you.
Attachment-based
I beleive that many, if not all relationships utilize the fitness model. Early relationships impact future ones and an analysis of relationship dynamics tends to allow for the opportunity for personal insight into current relationship dynamics. Put simply, your relationships tend to be formed by how you did or did not interact with others previously.
