Therapy style
As a therapist, I aim to help clients build healthy relationships with themselves and others by promoting authenticity, empathy, self-love, boundaries, and awareness to facilitate positive, lasting change. I focus on establishing a natural and accepting setting where clients can freely express themselves, and work through their challenges, insecurities, and fears while feeling safe and accepted. I use a combination of evidence-based practices, modalities, and interventions customized to each client's specific needs.
