As a therapist, clients come to me seeking a safe space to share their thoughts and emotions without judgment. They expect me to provide a listening ear, empathy, and understanding as we explore their experiences together. Clients also expect that I will use evidence-based approaches and techniques to help them overcome challenges and improve their mental health. They may hope to gain insight into their behaviors, learn coping strategies, and better understand themselves. Ultimately, clients expect to feel heard, validated, and supported throughout their therapeutic journey with me.

As a therapist, I use a variety of evidence-based treatments and tools to help my clients improve their mental health and overcome challenges. Depending on the specific needs of each individual, I may use techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), or Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). In addition, I may incorporate expressive therapies such as art or music therapy to help clients process and express their emotions. Throughout the therapy process, I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment for my clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. I also collaborate with them to find the best treatment approaches and tools for their unique needs.
