About My Clients
I serve with the purpose of teaching folks that are faced with life stressors, and many more to help develop new coping habits that will address the symptoms, and motivate them by challenging them to become their absolute best self. I incorporate techniques and skills that can be utilized at any point in time when symptoms arise. I thrive in helping individuals become self-aware of their challenges and collaboratively explore and identify skills that fit their lifestyle.
My Background and Approach
I provide tools that help with approaching the situation with a solution-focused response. I have used these techniques with all my clients. Learning skills and implementing them is a skill that allows you to understand yourself, the way you process your symptoms, manage your emotions, and the behavior that it yields. I am person-centered and solution-focused and believe in positive affirmations. We will work collaboratively to address your concerns and identify triggers that are exacerbating the symptoms. We will work on boundary setting within yourself and others that may have an impact on the concerns identified in our sessions. There will be assignments that allow you to work on yourself throughout the week as well as in our sessions. We are all a work in progress and owning your mental Health is an ongoing life skill.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone should give themselves grace and take a moment to celebrate themselves in all aspects of their lives. I believe that we all learned from our experiences that had some influence on who we are today. Some of those experiences may have been tough and shows up in areas that we might have not been aware of, however, there is room for change once we are able to recognize it. Growing up in the projects speed up my childhood and shaped why I became a clinician. I realized that the environment that I was raised in was not the best but understood that there had to be more to what I lived in. The experiences I had shaped my ambitions, but they also came with triggers of residing in the "hood". Through my own therapy, I was able to work through my triggers which have liberated me. This is where my passion came from and I hope to serve my clients with the same purpose.
