My clients describe me as empathetic and patient. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your emotions, experiences, and trauma. As C.S. Lewis said, “You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start now and change the ending.” Your feelings & experiences are valid, and they play a meaningful role in your journey. I’m so excited to walk alongside you and help you create the change you’re looking for.
Your experiences are a part of your journey, and it is important to tackle the negatives and embrace the positives. My approach to providing therapy is to ensure that you have a safe space to express how you feel without any judgement. My theoretical approaches include CBT, where my goal is to help you recognize your thoughts that are influencing your behavior and emotions. Besides CBT, I believe in integrating multiple approaches to create a personalized treatment to meet client's unique needs.
Mainly, our first session will focus on helping me gain an overall understanding of you and your Goals. Depending on your comfort level, we discuss your history of mental illness, trauma, medications, and your daily routine. You are in charge of our sessions, hence, my clients get to choose what chapter of their story they want to talk about first. There is no right or wrong way to do therapy, ideally it’s all about you and I am thankful I get to be a small part of your healing process.
