VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I've been incorporating CBT into my practice for the past 6 years, helping dozens of clients overcome challenges, manage recurring thoughts, and reduce anxiety. Together, we'll use CBT to explore the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By gaining insight into these patterns, you'll learn how to shift your thinking in ways that support a calmer, less anxious, and more balanced life.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
In my practice, I prioritize culturally sensitive therapy by creating a space where clients feel seen, respected, and understood within the context of their unique cultural background. Over the years, Iva worked with clients from a wide range of racial, ethnic, and religious communities. I approach each individual with the humility and curiosity, recognizing that culture deeply influences how people experience mental health, family dynamics, identity, and healing.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
Over the years, I'have seen how powerful Person-centered approach can be especially for. clients who may have felt dismissed, misunderstood, or pressured. By honoring each person's lived experience and trusting their inner wisdom, I help clients reconnect with their sense of self, clarify what's meaningful to them, and move toward greater emotional well-being own pace.
Grief Therapy
Weather someone is coping with the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or a significant life transition, I create a space where client's can express their pain, honor their loss, and begin to find meaning again. Over the years, I've helped clients move through the waves of sadness, anger, confusion, and even guilt that of ten accompany grief. My role is not to 'fix' grief, but to walk alongside my clients-helping them integrate the loss into their lives while also supporting their capacity to heal and reconnect with hope.
EMDR
As a trained EMDR therapist I've worked with clients dealing with trauma, anxiety, grief, and early attachment wounds, guiding them through the eight phases of EMDR. Many clients have found EMDR helps them shift from feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or defined by their past, to feeling more grounded, empowered, and at peace.
