Hello! About me: I am a multiracial southern Californian native in my thirties. As a therapist I take honor in being able to help my clients achieve their mental health goals and increase fulfillment in their lives. Mental , emotional, relational, and physical health balance are the key to sustaining an abundant life. I would love to meet with you in the near future to start or continue your mental health journey with you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The first session will consist of identifying the reason you are wanting therapy, communicating a brief overview of how your mental health has/ is impacting your life. Exploring your goals will be a focus, and overall rapport will start to build. I work collaboratively with my clients , and if both I and the client feel comfortable in the therapeutic dynamic, we will then proceed to schedule follow up appointments.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strength is my down to earth , non judgmental personality. My niche within therapy is my understanding and presentation of mindfulness and grounding skills that tackle depressive and anxious thoughts. I collaborate and practice coping skill tools with my clients until they feel more confident to implement them independently. I enjoy providing resources such as book recommendations, podcast recommendations, and visual aids that further promote session material. I am laid back with a balance of being gracefully direct within my treatment style of communication. I create a genuine authentic treatment experience with my clients and I hope to see you soon.
