About My Clients
Change can be hard, exhilarating, or downright paralyzing, but you don't have to do it alone. Overall, my ideal client embodies a willingness to learn, grow, and embrace positive change in their lives. You possess a genuine willingness to explore your emotions, tap in to your strengths, and acknowledge your limitations, while actively engaging in your therapeutic process. Children, adolescents, and adults going through life transitions are those that I am passionate in working alongside.
My Background and Approach
Seeking therapy is a very courageous choice. I will join you where you are and help you get to where you aspire to be. Every session will be one where you can breathe deeper and feel comfortable enough to release anything that may be weighing you down in a safe, open space. Although every person’s treatment is individualized to meet their needs, I use a person centered approach with a combination of Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectal Behavioral therapy techniques, expressive arts therapy, and skill building to address whatever challenges you bring to your session. I provide psychoeducational material and short assignments based on topics explored to enable reflection between sessions.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My approach to care is guided by my core values of respect, compassion, dedication, loyalty, kindness, and humility. Every person, no matter age, race, sexual orientation, or belief, is an integral part of this greater world we live in and deserves to be treated as such. As a therapist and person, I give myself fully to help others find the best aspects of themselves in the good and not-so-good times in their lives. Every person is the expert in their own lives and I aspire to help you gain that awareness and regain that sense of control. I endeavor to walk with you on your path, pushing ever so lightly but respecting your need for time in getting to your destination. I truly believe that one kind of work, act, or gesture can be the light in someone else’s day, and try to make it my daily goal.
