What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Each session will be tailored to the intake that we do together in session one. All sessions will be in service of the plan that we have established and will be reviewed for progress. Often I can encourage homework and things to try at home which are purely up to you to complete.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I like to use an eclectic approach to therapy. I have training and certifications in ACT, DBT, mindfulness, EMDR. I try to use a humanistic approach in all of my work as you are the expert of your life. Currently, I am working towards EMDR certification and is a focus at this time.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strength is genuine curiosity in all aspects of you and what brings you to treatment at this time. I find getting to know the big picture of what brings a person to treatment and meeting them where they are is the biggest part of the treatment. Our relationship truly guides the treatment.
