2 years of experience

My approach to therapy
I utilize multiple treatment approaches including mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, exploration of patterns/emotions, psychoeducation, role-playing, structured problem-solving, and cognitive reframing.
What you can expect from me
Our first session is a "getting to know you phase". This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. I work from a non-judgmental harm-reduction lens, presenting the therapeutic environment as a safe space to process feelings and help clients to find their voice. I take a person-centered approach to treatment, respecting the client as the author of their own story.
