Therapy style
Providing a client-centered approach coupled with cognitive restructuring techniques enables my clients the skills to change their negative thinking patterns. So often, these negative automatic thoughts negatively influence one's sense of stability, confidence, and self-esteem. Together we will develop positive coping skills to increase your problem-solving skills.
I believe in the power of mindfulness skills to address negative thinking and improve a sense of wellness, Being in the moment is easier than it sounds, we all are distracted by our thoughts, and learning to quiet the mind is a powerful tool.
