Therapy style

I recognize the importance of building rapport and understanding each client's individual needs. I work closely with clients to develop a treatment plan that aligns with their goals and preferences. I involve clients and empower them to take ownership of their treatment journey and foster a sense of agency in their recovery. One of my key strengths as a therapist is my ability to assess current stressors and prioritize the most pressing issues facing my clients. I identify the areas of concern that impact my clients' well-being and focus our efforts on managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance abuse.

Interests

Outside of work, I enjoy various activities that nurture my own well-being and creativity. I love spending time outdoors, whether it's hiking in nature, practicing yoga in the park, or simply taking leisurely walks. I also find solace in reading, exploring different cuisines through cooking, and engaging in artistic pursuits like painting or playing music.
