First session
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then actively listen to understand the specific challenges you're facing and finally work with you to establish clear goals for therapy. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in subsequent sessions.
Strengths
With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I have developed a deep understanding of diverse emotional challenges affecting both adults and children, along with a proven track record of supporting clients in accepting and resolving these issues.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I've been using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients recognize inaccurate or negative thinking patterns and utilize practical strategies to help them cope with challenging situations and improve their emotional well-being.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness based therapy has helped clients utilize meditation, relaxation, and awareness exercises to focus on the present moment, allowing them to observe their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations without judgment, aiming to cultivate a non-reactive approach to daily stressors and situations
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
This therapeutic approach helps clients focus on their strengths and resources to create positive change by emphasizing future goals and solutions, rather than dwelling on past problems.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy combines cognitive behavioral and mindfulness strategies and focuses on management of emotions.
