Get To Know Me
In what ways does your personality influence your approach to therapy?
During sessions, I strive to create a supportive, affirming, and non-judgmental environment, with a dash of humor. I aim to meet my clients where they are, while gently challenging unhelpful patterns or beliefs. My goal is to create a space where my clients can feel free to explore themselves and tell their stories while receiving support, guidance, and empowerment.
What is your style/approach to therapy?
I incorporate a variety of techniques and approaches during sessions based on my clients' needs, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, and mindfulness-based strategies. I often combine evidence-based methods with creative activities in order to help my clients reach their treatment goals.
What does a first session with you look like?
I believe that it is imperative to spend time getting to know my clients so that we can be successful on this journey together. During my first session with new clients, I will spend time discussing background information, gaining a better understanding of what brought them to therapy, and begin to discuss and develop the goals that will guide our future sessions. It is my goal to ensure my clients always feel safe and secure, and I hope that they leave our sessions feeling empowered to continue to tackle life's ups and downs.
