What is your style/approach to therapy?
I help working women and women in school find balance between success and health. Yes, you can have both! I can help you improve your mental health (depression, anxiety, stress, burnout) but also get better sleep, eating habits, body movement & coping skills. My approach is solution focused so you can see REAL changes and end therapy. Each case is unique but we aim to see improvement in 3-6 months.
If there was one thing you wish people knew about the therapy experience who might be hesitant to try it, what would that be?
Counseling can be affordable. Check your health insurance! Many plans will pay for ALL of your counseling sessions. Others have you pay a copay each session that often ranges from $10 to $50. If you don't have insurance, then you can look into self-pay and other low-cost options (I'm happy to discuss this with you). With teletherapy, counseling can be accessible! I do 100% online video therapy throughout NM & TX. All you need is a device with stable internet.
What’s the most profound, insightful, or interesting thing you’ve learned as a mental health professional?
Counseling should not only focus on your mind/thoughts. Your body needs some attention too. Everything your mind and body does has a purpose. The thoughts, worries, feelings, they all have a purpose. The headaches, stomach problems, and muscle pain have a purpose. We just tend to ignore them. Let's figure out what your mind & body are trying to telling you.
