What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, clients can expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where they'll have the opportunity to share their story and discuss their reasons for seeking therapy. We'll take the time to get to know each other, establish a trusting relationship, and clarify your goals for therapy. I'll provide a comprehensive overview of the therapeutic process and address any questions or concerns you may have. Together, we'll begin to explore your experiences, emotions, and needs, laying the foundation for our work together and outlining a personalized treatment plan tailored to support your journey towards healing and growth.

My treatment methods

Compassion Focused

In our sessions, we'll explore the origins of your self-criticism and cultivate a compassionate attitude towards yourself. Through various exercises and techniques, we'll work to foster a sense of warmth, acceptance, and understanding towards yourself, ultimately helping you to build resilience and navigate life's challenges with greater compassion and kindness.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

We'll explore how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected. Together, we'll identify and challenge any negative thought patterns, develop coping strategies to manage difficult emotions, and work towards making positive changes in your behavior to improve your overall well-being. Through this process, you'll gain practical skills and tools to better understand and navigate your own thoughts and emotions, empowering you to take control of your life.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

In our sessions, we'll practice mindfulness exercises such as focused breathing or body scans to anchor you in the present moment and observe your thoughts and feelings without becoming overwhelmed by them. This practice can help increase self-awareness, reduce stress, and enhance emotional regulation. Together, we'll integrate mindfulness techniques into our sessions to help you develop a greater sense of inner calm, clarity, and self-compassion, ultimately supporting your overall well-being and personal growth.

Trauma Informed Care

Trauma-Informed Care recognizes the widespread impact of trauma on individuals and emphasizes creating a safe and supportive environment for healing. In our sessions, I will prioritize your safety, trust, and collaboration, ensuring that we proceed at a pace that feels comfortable for you. By understanding the effects of trauma and integrating trauma-sensitive approaches, we'll work together to address your experiences, promote resilience, and support your journey towards healing and empowerment.
