Let's face it we all feel nervous and at times can't get those worry thoughts out of our heads. Anxiety can be overwhelming and even having to deal with it too. I provide different techniques and helpful tools from thought stopping to restructuring our thought process. I also take time to teach about mindfulness skills and even the importance of writing down those anxious situations. The main key is to help you stay present and establishing a coping space with your mind and body.

We all have struggles that can feel unbearable and feel like we are not valuable nor useful. We tend to carry a negative thinking pattern that maybe became a part of us. Depression can feel like we are not motivating nor interesting to anyone. I will help explore and figure out those patterns and together we can establish simple productive goals to battle depression.

Your eating disorder says that giving your body nutrition and water is not the best. Maybe you think you have no control or are having low self-esteem moments? I want to tell you that what makes you special is the person you are growing up to be. From creative exposure therapy to understand eating disorder thoughts are part of my treatment goals. I help educate individuals and families about the eating struggles and how to have a better relationship with eating food and drinking water.

One of my favorite therapy modalities is cognitive behavioral therapy because I have utilized it in many different ways. I help explore thought patterns and processes when an individual has difficulties confronting situations. I tend to give assignments on how to practice identifying irrational thoughts to transform into more rational ones. I provide many mindfulness or behavioral activation techniques and find creative ways to help restructure the mind and emotions.

When giving family sessions especially to individuals who struggle with severe depression, bipolar, anxiety, ADHD, or eating disorders, learning how to provide support is essential. I provide psychoeducation and teach families how to identify communication patterns, how to establish healthy ways to vocalize concerns and give validation to their love ones. I value that each individual needs a support system when facing with difficult life transitions.

There are many times when clients are ready and motivate to work on themselves. I enjoy having clients who are eager to learn and wanting to practice all the coping skill sets they need to face those daily life stressors. With this type of therapy modality I explore within those first couple of sessions on specific treatment goals to help minimize any of your mood symptoms or brief life adjustments. I work together with my client to make sure these specific goals are being followed through.
