I am licensed in New York with 8 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, career difficulties, coping with life changes, & executive and professional coaching. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
I use evidence-based techniques and models, mostly CBT, motivational interviewing, and psychoanalysis as requested. I have found Progressive Muscle Relaxation Skills to be effective coping skills for relaxation to address anxiety and stress. I enjoy using positive psychology, affirmations, and solution focused treatments. This means finding your strengths and reinforcing them. I can take a seat and listen and modeling communication skills. Let me know what you need, and I'll find a tool to help.
I want you to leave our sessions each time with tools to help you during your day, the week, and your future. I like to teach and educate. If I can find a technique that works for you, I will, and we can work on it together. The other part is practicing some of our techniques throughout your day to reinforce your knowledge and growth. I hope that you'll feel encouraged to continue your growth by the end of the session.
