First session
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Strengths
My greatest strength as a provider would be my ability to be non-judgemental. It is so important for people to feel they are provided a safe space where they can be themselves and be comfortable. My goal is always to make sure my client feels heard, understood, and valued.
Ideal clients
I love to work to with teens and adults who are going through different life adjustments and are looking for someone to support them through these difficult times. I prefer to look at issues with the client so that they do not feel isolated and empower them to make their own decisions. I maintain a small caseload, so I am able to focus on the client needs and their commitment to the work ahead.
Origin story
I have had a lot of lived experiences in which I needed support and that led me into a heart work profession. It's important to be to help others feel empowered when they are going through difficult life events and know they have someone who supports them.
Ongoing work together
I believe it's important to set attainable goals so that you know you are making progress. We take several sessions when we first meet to really figure out what you are looking to work on and then determine what it could look or feel like in the future. After several weeks we review those goals together and determine if we have made progress or achieved those goals and what the client would like to do next.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a great starting point for many clients. In this practice you will set measurable goals, learn new coping skills, and find ways to reward the behaviors as they change.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
DBT is an effective tool for a variety of issues people generally struggle with. Dialectical perspective can help individuals think, feel and behave in a balanced way. That learn to accept things as they are and recognize the need to change things including ourselves. It is also effective at helping to reduce polarized thinking.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
This practice helps with overall stress reduction, prevention of depression, and increase self awareness. Mindfulness, meditation, breath work, body scans, and somatic work are incorporated.
Integrative
This practice includes techniques from CBT, psychodynamic, humanistic and Eastern practices. The focus is on wellness-mind, body, and spirit. Practices include relaxation techniques, somatic work, yoga, and nutrition for overall well being.
