First session
At Bubblegum and Duct Tape Psychiatry, we believe healing doesn't require perfection; it starts with meeting you where you are. Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other in a comfortable, judgment-free space. We'll talk about what brought you in, review your mental health and medical history, discuss your current concerns and goals, and work together to create a treatment plan that's personalized to your needs. You're also encouraged to ask questions along the way so you feel informed and supported from the very beginning.
Strengths
I help individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, OCD, personality challenges, stress, and trauma. Together, we create a personalized plan that combines therapy, medication, and practical strategies to support your well-being and emotional balance. My goal is to provide compassionate guidance so you feel heard, supported, and empowered on your journey toward healing.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with individuals who are ready to better understand themselves and improve their overall well-being. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, mood changes, life transitions, relationship challenges, or simply feeling overwhelmed, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where we can work together toward meaningful and lasting progress. You don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out, we'll take it one step at a time.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. Together, we identify unhelpful thinking patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and build practical skills that can be applied in everyday life.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I incorporate mindfulness techniques to help clients become more aware of their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations without judgment. By practicing mindfulness, clients can reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and feel more grounded in the present moment.
Motivational Interviewing
I use Motivational Interviewing to help clients explore their goals, strengthen their motivation for change, and overcome ambivalence. Rather than telling clients what to do, I work collaboratively with them to identify what matters most and support them in making meaningful, lasting changes.
