Therapy style

My psychotherapy style is characterized by empathy, rationality, and a relational focus. I emphasize the examination of feelings and thoughts by addressing stuck patterns and engaging in collaborative exploration with clients to facilitate behavioral changes. Additionally, I believe in the individual's capacity for change and trust that they possess answers within themselves. My approach is culturally sensitive, recognizing and acknowledging the cultural background of my clients. This inclusivity guides me in adopting strategies that are both sensitive and effective in meeting the unique needs of each individual.
