What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we'll begin with introductions and some helpful logistics of online therapy. I'm a pretty open person, so I may "visit" with you and try to create meaningful connections. Moving forward, I will listen to understand the problem, all the while seeking clarification.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am a dedicated and caring individual who is ready to prioritize your care and value your time. In our fast-paced world, I believe it's crucial to focus on calming our minds, hearts, and souls through self-regulation and healthy coping techniques.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Our thoughts hold immense power, shaped by our upbringing and the voices we've heard throughout our lives. Whether these voices are healthy or not, we often internalize what our loved ones tell us. To truly understand ourselves, we must sometimes rewire and reconstruct these thoughts into absolute truths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) empowers you to transform unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You do this by tapping into your own authenticity and following your voice.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
To genuinely practice mindfulness, you must connect with your authentic self. Although this might seem daunting, it's more achievable than it appears. Your true self is ready to emerge, simply needing the right moment and permission. We often prioritize others' needs before our own, which is not sustainable or fair to you. Being mindful and intentional in pursuing what truly matters to you, you show respect and honor to yourself. Mindfulness offers strategies to cultivate authenticity and presence, essential skills for personal growth with self and others.
Integrative
Looking at the whole person involves engaging with individuals and their environments, recognizing that we are deeply interconnected with external forces. To truly understand our circumstances, we must consider these complex layers. Integrative therapy offers a versatile treatment approach, blending techniques from different therapies to craft a personalized plan. It addresses the unique systems influencing each person’s life, ensuring therapy is tailored to individual experiences.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution-focused therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented approach that emphasizes identifying and implementing solutions rather than dwelling on past. While we acknowledge these causes to the necessary extent, our primary aim is to help you resolve your issues and move forward. I recognize the value of time and the need for efficiency, having worked with diverse clients across various settings. Sometimes, we all need someone to collaborate with us, devise a solution, and progress confidently.
