Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During the consultation (or initial) session, individuals can expect me to listen mindfully as I conceptualize some of the mental health challenges. I will reflect back my thoughts about what is happening in relation to emotional-psychological concerns and suggest a psychotherapy approach that will dictate what client progress will look like.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I constantly use a mindfulness-based approach to psychotherapy. Moreover, I do have a good gauge of what symptoms are coming up, which may be rooted in various life circumstances. This allows me to articulate to clients the plausibility of what is happening as a way for clients to reflect on and build awareness around. As a result, I can offer a psychotherapy platform (e.g., CBT, IPT) for clients to process and progress towards their goals.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My preference and expertise is working with individual clients, 1-1, who have been exposed to considerable trauma, which have produced a complex psychological reaction (e.g., C-PTSD, personality disorders, and/or suicidal thoughts from major depressive symptoms).
