My goal is to support women who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma from childhood or relationships. I often give homework so it is great when people are able to practice in between sessions. However, it is equally important to process what the barriers to not doing the homework if that is the case. Consistency in just "showing up" is the key to success!
I have experience working with several populations and multiple different settings. With my experience and training, I filter through my rolodex of tools (better than an AI) and help my clients in ways specific to the person in front of me. I do not believe in one treatment modality. I have trainings in several areas so that I can help people in many different ways, unique to the person. The methods I utilize most are Trauma Focused CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), Client Centered Therapy and IFS (Internal Family Systems).
So many people are anxious about their first therapy session. I'm not going to tell you not to be anxious because then what kind of therapist would I be? I can only tell you this... by the end of the first session, 100% of my clients are no longer anxious about being in therapy. During the first session, you will be able to share your story and talk about what you would like to work on in therapy. I will be there to guide you through the process so that it is not overwhelming for you. I look forward to meeting you!
