Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, my priority is to help you feel comfortable and relaxed. I want you to know that this is a safe space where you can share anything on your mind. I believe in building a strong rapport so that we can get to know each other and create a relaxed environment before we dive into the therapeutic process.

EMDR
Here’s a rephrased version of your text: As a therapist trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), I offer an evidence-based approach to treating trauma. EMDR uses guided eye movements to help your brain process and integrate distressing memories. The aim is to facilitate healing from trauma and challenging life events. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR does not require you to go into detail about painful experiences. Instead, it works by targeting the emotions, thoughts, and behaviors associated with the trauma, helping your brain return to its natural healing state.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Here’s a rephrased version of your text: In my work with clients, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to explore how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. Together, we identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that may be contributing to emotional distress or problematic behaviors. CBT helps clients replace these thoughts with more balanced and realistic perspectives, leading to healthier emotional responses and choices. I also support clients in building practical coping strategies and skills to manage issues such as stress, anxiety, and depression. By addressing both thinking patterns and behaviors, CBT promotes meaningful, lasting change and personal growth.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
IHere’s a rephrased version of your text: In Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), my approach centers on helping you define clear goals and focus on solutions rather than delving deeply into the problem. We’ll identify "exceptions"—times when the issue was less present—and highlight the strengths and resources you already possess. I’ll ask forward-looking questions to help you envision a future where the problem is resolved, and we’ll use scaling tools to measure your progress. Together, we’ll break your goals into manageable, achievable steps, and I’ll support you in drawing on your own abilities to create meaningful change. The emphasis remains on practical solutions and empowering you to take positive steps forward.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
Here’s a shorter, rephrased version of your text: In person-centered therapy, I create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to express themselves. I offer empathy, deep listening, and unconditional positive regard to help them feel understood and accepted. By being genuine in our interactions, I build trust and encourage self-exploration. I respect each client’s autonomy and believe in their ability to find their own path toward growth and healing.
