In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In the initial session, the focus will be on obtaining relevant background information, clarifying presenting concerns, and conducting an initial clinical assessment. This process allows for the development of an individualized treatment plan, which will guide the therapeutic work in subsequent sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, integrative, and grounded in evidence-based practice. Treatment is individualized based on a comprehensive assessment of each client’s presenting concerns, strengths, and clinical needs. I integrate interventions from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based frameworks to support symptom reduction, increased insight, and improved emotional regulation. A strong emphasis is placed on the therapeutic alliance, as research consistently demonstrates its role in positive treatment outcomes. Clients are actively involved in treatment planning and goal setting to ensure relevance, engagement, and sustainability of progress. Clinical outcomes focus on enhancing coping skills, strengthening resilience, improving interpersonal functioning, and supporting long-term emotional and psychological well-being.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood-related concerns, life transitions, and relational or family difficulties. I work well with clients who are seeking a structured yet supportive therapeutic process and are motivated to gain insight, develop effective coping strategies, and improve emotional regulation. My approach is well suited for clients who value collaboration, self-reflection, and evidence-based interventions, and who are open to engaging actively in treatment planning and therapeutic work. Clients with goals of increasing self-awareness, strengthening resilience, improving interpersonal functioning, and achieving sustained emotional and mental well-being may find this approach particularly beneficial.
