Therapy style
Entering therapy is a courageous first step toward recognizing your truest potential. As a therapist, I utilize an eclectic approach based on my client's needs. It is of utmost importance for me to build a therapeutic space that is authentic, safe, and honest, an environment where growth is possible amidst encouragement and support.
As we are all unique humans with unique stories, I do not believe in a one size fits all approach to therapy, and tailor my therapeutic style to my client's needs and goals. I draw upon aspects of Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
Approaches
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
- Motivational Interviewing
- Solution-focused
- Strengths-based
Education
MS - Marriage and Family Therapy, University of Southern California
Interests
All things nature: hiking, beach, even a run around my neighborhood. I also love all things food: cooking, baking, and eating out.
