A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach emphasizes creating a safe and compassionate environment, recognizing the significance of strong therapeutic relationships in the healing process. I incorporates evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness to assist clients in understanding their thoughts and developing coping strategies. Collaboration is key, encouraging clients to actively participate in their healing by setting goals and implementing actionable plans.
