My approach to therapy
I specialize with working with clients who struggle with perseverations, ruminations, disturbing intrusive thoughts, isolation, avoidance, and debilitating stress reactions. Treatment focuses on understanding how to overcome pervasive and negative thought patterns, rebuilding self-identity and sense of community, resulting in more confidence, engagement with others, and an adaptive skills set. My approach is very collaborative, warm, and solution-focused.
What you can expect from me
Within the first session, we will start understanding your journey and how symptoms have been manifesting. The initial session will consist of information collecting, assessing symptomatology, and identifying a treatment plan. We will also engage in meaningful discussions to what your needs are and how to support your engagement into the process.
