Culturally Sensitive Therapy
Rita emphasizes the client’s background and belief system while respecting the differences in the opinions, values, and attitudes of various cultures and different types of people to provide the most effective treatment specific to a client. Race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, or other important elements play a huge part in a person's identity so incorporating cultural sensitivity accommodates and respects clients in this way.
Supportive
Rita prioritizes creating a therapeutic alliance by using supportive therapy to alleviate symptoms, improve self-esteem, regulate impulses and negative thinking, restore relation to reality, and reinforce the ability to cope with life stressors and challenges to ensure the client is most successful.
