My approach to therapy

Therapy is a very intimate yet necessary process in order to change negative life dynamics . It works best through empathy, engagement and building strong individualized relationships.The approach is conversational, postive, and theoretical based. Plans are developed to meet the needs of the clients which will inform decisions on the best way to tackle them.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, clients can expect a collaborative, respectful, and goal- oriented conversation with a solution-focused therapist, Clients will have an opportunity to share what brought them to therapy and their desired results from therapy.Rather than focusing extensively on problems or past difficulties, this session will identify your strengths, resources, and previous successes and begin outlining practical, achievable steps toward your preferred future. The first session is also a time for you to ask questions, clarify expectations, and ensure that therapy feels like a good fit for your needs. Care types individual therapy, child, Adolescent, young adult, or adult therapy.
