What does a first session with you look like?
During the first session, I will gather a history and assess needs. We will set goals together, and i will work with your financial needs to determine frequency of sessions. I strive to leave clients feeling like they know what to do next and have someone to turn too if needed.
What is your style/approach to therapy?
I utilize person centered therapy techniques to validate feelings. I also use cognitive behavioral strategies like reframes and positive self talk. I will challenge beliefs that interfere with change in a supportive way, and will use reality testing. I encourage clients to speak up about anything they believe does not work for them in the therapeutic process so that I can refocus to use techniques that will be more helpful.
