Get To Know Me
How has your particular field of specialization evolved in recent years and how has that impacted your work?
The field of mental/behavioral therapy is continuously evolving, particularly over the last year as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Because of the continued evolution, it requires me to remain flexible, and stay on top in the field of counseling by actively participating in ongoing trainings.
What do you think is the biggest barrier today for people seeking care?
I think the biggest barrier for people seeking care today, is the stigma of receiving mental health treatment. It is unfortunate because mental health is not viewed as important as physical health. My belief is that mental and physical health are directly related. However, since the Covid-19 pandemic, people and society have become more open, and sensitive to the field of mental/behavioral health therapy.
Are there any recurring themes or issues you’ve noticed as you treat people in your area of specialization, and how has this insight guided your approach?
Yes, I have noticed that many people I treat have experienced events in their lives that continue to pose challenges in the present. Those challenges precipitate limiting beliefs that hinder growth and happiness.
