You can expect to feel a release after a session with me. You can expect to have learned something new about yourself, your situation and to have gained the tools to help equip you for the next week. A week or a few days can seem like a lifetime with the abundance of what occurs daily. Combine that with a lifetime of thoughts and stressors possibly never let out or processed. The session can bring about essential relief to gain the strength to utilize what was learned to continue to the next week. Finally, you can expect to be encouraged and empowered.

I always ensure that the treatment methods utilized in sessions are client-centered. You are unique and therefore, so are your experiences. To achieve that I have found great success in utilizing cognitive and humanistic therapy, as well as, trauma-informed care when necessary. For example, if you are someone who has many rapid thoughts due to anxiety and/or trauma, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy may be very impactful to be able to identify challenges in decision-making or process fears and emotions. I also believe it is important to be able to identify your strengths and gratitude to provide empowerment and hope. I have found that motivational interviewing and positive psychology assist with being able to achieve that goal.
