What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Worker in the greater Houston area, I have had the opportunity to provide comfort and to empower individuals to identify their strengths and use them as steps towards recovery. We all have strengths but it is often difficult for us to recognize those strengths for what they are… stepping stones to emotional freedom.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I have spent over 15 years specializing in grief and bereavement issues, depression, anxiety, and a variety of other issues.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Within my practice, I utilize techniques such as CBT, Motivational Interviewing, traditional talk therapy. Also throughout my career, I have placed a strong emphasis on the importance of trauma informed care as related to the individual’s I serve.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
My goal as your therapist is not only to empower you and encourage learning of coping techniques but to have an emotional outlet, which provides you with a safe place to share your truths. As a therapist that has actually worked out in the field with people, in their homes, I have great insight into the issues that society faces on a daily basis.
