VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I set the tone to create an engaging, warm, and welcoming atmosphere with clients. My approach with clients is to first attentively listen and understand their adopted thought patterns and behaviors. Then working at the client's pace challenge the negative thoughts and beliefs and develop healthy sustainable coping strategies. Following session processing, I offer guided exercises to help refine thinking and behaving practices into lasting positive change.
Humanistic
I welcome the opportunity to hear and validate the client narrative. In the humanistic approach, I offer the support of hearing the client's experiences, said and unsaid emotions, and perspective. The therapeutic environment is cultivated with reflective listening, open-ended questions, and experiential exercises. My approach is to help support self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-fulfillment.
Cognitive Processing (CPT)
I provide structured sessions of learning the account of unconstructive behaviors. Once understanding the foundation of an experience, I help develop coping strategies to manage the symptoms of traumatic encounters. The coping techniques implemented include mindfulness, cognitive restructuring, and relaxation exercises.
