A few sentences that would capture some of myself would follow as such. Firstly, I would say that my approach comes from a perspective of embracing and affirming the struggles that one has, by ultimately claiming and using those struggles and difficulties within one's own life as a vantage point to help understand and navigate through life. I would say one challenge I find in not only my own life but within conversations with others and within sessions is to validate and confirm all of one's existence, especially those that are more difficult to affirm such as pain, suffering, hardships, mental health and physical health disorders. Secondly, I am by nature very curious and attentive when in the company of another within a therapeutic space and outside a session which has brought many perspectives within my life from existentialism, CBT, DBT therapy, and many other modalities. One ideal that I strive for within sessions is to ask questions in such a manner to allow the client's to explore and discover details and aspects of one's life that otherwise would be dormant and to allow for greater exploration of meaning and purpose. One quote that would describe my practice would be: "we live in a state of becoming, being is more immediate, simple and indeterminate, where becoming is open, more complex and dynamic."

My dream client is someone who recognizes that they deserve to be happy and is genuinely ready to grow.

This client is committed to taking control of their life and actively managing symptoms of mental health that hinder their well-being, paving the way for a healthier and more fulfilling lifestyle.
