About My Clients
In my professional career I have focused on treating a wide variety of conditions across a broad age and demographic spectrum. I have lived in cross cultural environments in a multitude of states and internationally in Europe. In these experiences I have become particularly aware of the impact of culture as It relates to sense of self and how it may augment the therapeutic process. My goal is to customize treatment using a cultural bound approach.
My Background and Approach
Recovery starts with change and my orientation to therapy is a straightforward, solution focused approach to get you results. My counseling approach includes addressing current areas of distress in conjunction with focusing on deeper behavioral patterns that have reinforced maladaptive coping skills. To achieve this we focus on family of origin dynamics, self concept, negative self beliefs and barriers to changing destructive behaviors. This process combines targeting thoughts, beliefs and behaviors to support self awareness and progress towards your therapy goals. In this process I often utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, experiential therapies, dialectic behavioral therapy, trauma narrative therapy and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR). My approach heavily centers on collaboration between therapist and client, accountability and a non-judgmental environment to fully explore oneself.
