About My Clients
Ready to see some change? This is the client that is the best fit with my therapeutic style. Clients can expect to receive compassion and empathy from me but they can also expect to get started using the plans and tools we work on together to start making the changes they want to experience to meet their goals. While I want to hear your story, it is so important, I am even more passionate about getting you started healing, growing, and living a full, satisfying life.
My Background and Approach
I use a several interventions methods derived from different viewpoints of psychological health and well-being. First and foremost, developing a trusting therapeutic relationship is a key element in success in therapy. I lean towards interventions that are strength-based and help clients develop sustainable well-being. These include, but are not limited to, interventions in positive psychology, mindfulness, solution-focused interventions, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed treatments. Specific tools might include relaxation and mindfulness exercises, identity exploration and character strength development, guided visualization, hypnotherapy, cognitive behavior exercises, collaboration and exploration using worksheets, suggested reading/books, and discussion.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone has a right to live life fully - embracing life experiences and realizing dynamic growth, happiness, contentment, while at the same time being prepared to face life challenges with confidence and grace. I can meet you where you are, but no matter what your past, people have a choice to not allow the past to define them. Sometimes is seems hopeless, but working together as a team, a path can be opened and pursued to a better lifestyle, happier times, and tremendous growth and success. My experience includes working with a diverse population of age, gender, race, and mental states to define your objectives and design a treatment plan that moves your forward.
