During our first meeting, I hope to create a safe space for you to share your struggles and explore your goals.
Strengths
I strive to create a space where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes at your own pace.
Ideal clients
I specialize in helping people navigate various mood disorders, life transitions, trauma, family dynamics, parenting, relationships, marital concerns, women's issues, loneliness, work stress, and bicultural needs. I take care to be an ally regarding the unique experiences of your identity. I will help you identify your personal goals and accompany you as you reflect and grow throughout our therapy process.
Ongoing work together
After establishing your goals, we will regularly reflect on your progress through qualitative and quantitative reflection.
Treatment methods
Attachment-based
I guide you with an attachment compass to identify patterns in your current relationships and trace these patterns back to your past experiences.
Trauma-Focused CBT
We'll look at both the "here and now" thoughts and behaviors that impact your mood as well as the deeper emotional experiences that shape you.
