About My Clients
I am open to work with all genders and identities; folks dealing with anxiety, depression, home life or relational issues as well. My ideal client is someone who has the desire to strengthen their self awareness and is open to movement and mindfulness exercises. The well being of my clients is my top priority. In meeting them where they are at, we can create goals and interventions at a comfortable pace. I am quite intuitive of others emotions and can empathize and feel with my clients.
My Background and Approach
While eclectic, I lean towards REBT and CBT modalities in my practice. My education in multicultural competence has helped me acknowledge biases and privileges to best serve all populations, while honoring individuals' experience. I strive to to create a nurturing environment for clients to grow and explore through comforting challenge and support. With my undergraduate degree being in kinesiology and applied physiology, I work towards connecting both mind and body in a holistic practice.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that we are constantly growing throughout our life journey. I emphasize the importance of self reflection and vulnerability. In that, we are able to check ourselves for harmful behaviors, unlearn old patterns and replace with healthy ones. I have struggled with my own anxiety, and have been able to work on mechanisms to help manage it throughout my daily life. I am an advocate for justice and equity for all. I strive to participate in community action that support BLM and the LGBTQ community. I love to spend time outside in the sun whenever I can, especially if it is with one of my dogs. I am an avid lover of animals and will try to pet one every chance I get. I enjoy spending time in the kitchen with new recipes, and my favorite part: eating them. I gravitate towards all things’ movement: practicing yoga, dancing, and hiking, all with a smile on my face (they're contagious).
