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

In your first session with me, you can expect a warm welcome and a friendly chat about your goals. We’ll get to know each other, discuss what you want to achieve, and start mapping out a plan—all in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere. Let’s make it a great start together!

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a provider would be understanding that the human experience is dynamic; therefore, I do not subscribe to a “one-size-fits-all” approach but will guide you to the best fit! Having worked with many clients for the past seven years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

As an LCSW, I've seen firsthand how transformative Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be in helping individuals overcome challenges and improve their emotional well-being. CBT focuses on identifying and reshaping negative thought patterns and behaviors, and I use this approach to help clients gain insight and make positive changes in their lives. In our sessions, we’ll work together to set personalized goals and tackle the issues that matter most to you. Through techniques like cognitive restructuring and behavioral activation, I'll support you in developing effective coping strategies and achieving lasting improvement. If you're ready to take an active role in your mental health journey, I invite you to book a session and start working towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Incorporating Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) into my practice offers a dynamic and empowering approach to addressing your concerns. SFBT emphasizes finding practical solutions and building on your strengths and resources rather than focusing solely on problems. This method allows us to work together efficiently and constructively to identify your goals and discover actionable steps towards achieving them. In our sessions, we’ll focus on what’s working well in your life and explore how to enhance these positive aspects. By identifying and leveraging your strengths, we can create a clear and achievable plan to help you progress. If you’re looking for a forward-thinking, goal-oriented approach that emphasizes quick and effective results, I invite you to experience how SFBT can make a meaningful difference in your journey!
