What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will complete an intake screening and gather your history. At conclusion of our first session, we will decide on a customized treatment plan collaboratively, that you and I are both onboard with and comfortable executing. My goal is for you to leave our first session hopeful and empowered as we embark on this journey together of self-care and wellness.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have the ability to genuinely connect with any patient willing to open-up and embrace change. Med management is not the only component in improving one's circumstances. It will take work, including some holistic approaches and I will be there in support every step of the way. Patience, trust and communication are the key to success. I will be your personal advocate in all things related to mental health.

My treatment methods

Supportive

As a med management provider, I also provide support to all my patients. The combination of med management and support therapy is the recipe for success when treating my patient's needs.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT techniques often for cognitive distortions to help patient's reflect and reframe their thought processes.

Motivational Interviewing

I use Motivational Interviewing (MI) as it is very effective in positive behavioral changes, such as addiction.

Daialectical Behavior (DBT)

DBT is a type of CBT that is often used when treating patient's with personality disorders, such as Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). I have a colleague who specializes in DBT and I refer my patients in need of this treatment method to her expertise. She is also in the Grow Therapy network.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

When treating my patients, I use the solution focused modality to provide therapeutic relief to accomplish one's goals and needs.
