I empower my clients to become more confident, achieve the goals they set for themselves, and to better communicate with the people around them. I aid my clients in gaining a better understanding of themselves and help them explore how to solve problems while staying aligned with their core values. I approach my work from a person-centered lens, while also utilizing CBT and solution focused practices with a dash of narrative therapy and humor. This allows my clients to feel both seen and heard, while also enabling the creation of lasting changes in their lives.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we will spend some time so that we can get to know each other. We'll discuss what goals you have for therapy, personal goals for yourself, as well as any other hurdles or difficulties that you have been experiencing. Depending on what you're coming in with, we may even discuss some starter coping skills so that you can start seeing improvements as soon as possible.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Clients often share with me early on that they were surprised with how comfortable they were talking with me in our initial sessions. As someone with ADHD, I am very familiar with what the experience is like and difficulties and hurdles it presents.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with clients who want or want to want to create change in their life. Whether you're struggling with generating the motivation, consistency, or unsure how to create the change, I'm here to help build you up and identify potential routes towards improvement.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is used to reshape negative, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and habits into healthier ones that are more congruent with the person you identify as or want to identify as.
Psychoeducation
I utilize psychoeducation to help clients better utilize coping skills, understand the patterns and cycles, and to provide abundant tools and approaches towards creating the change in your life that you are craving.
Interpersonal
Navigating interpersonal conflicts can be difficult. In our work together, when called for, I'll be teaching more effective ways to approach and navigate interpersonal conflicts.
Motivational Interviewing
Using Motivational Interviewing, I assist clients in generating and accessing motivation towards tasks that YOU want to accomplish, but struggle to approach or start up.
Narrative
Assists clients in rewriting their life narrative into one that builds them up instead of holding them back.
