What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The goal is to explore the client's mental health issues, including any physical etiologies contributing to the mental health issues for a fully customized holistic treatment plan
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
It is my greatest joy to serve my clients as healer of bodies, minds, and souls that I strongly feel is my vocation in life. My strength are my natural intuition and empathy towards people with mental health issues. This intuition was borne from personal experiences. I derive utmost joy from helping people navigate their way through their mental health issues and see them overcome and thrive. I also continuously research and stay updated about the most recent evidence-based modalities in mental health to provide the best possible care for my clients.
