My ideal client struggles with insecurities, fears, has low self- esteem, and difficulties to identify his or her strengths. He or she has fears, and anxieties, and create the worst possible case scenarios in his or her inner dialogue for situations that he or she finds threatening or challenging. Also my ideal client needs to identify strategies to better manage their time. My ideal client struggles with anxieties in his or her relationship, which could lead to codependency and anxious attachment patterns.

It is important that my clients have issues that I am qualified to treat. An ideal client would be willing to explore, understand, and work through their psychological and emotional challenges. Their needs consist of a nonjudgmental space where they feel seen, heard, and understood, allowing them to express themselves freely and practical tools and coping strategies to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, or stress and to navigate challenging emotions or situations.

Do you want to diminish your anxiety and depression, being able to move forward without always being triggered or being awoken by a panic attack? Your goals may be to enjoy your life, be able to manage your emotions and enjoy healthy relationships. I'm here to listen, understand, and help you feel validated and valued so that you can move forward confidently. We will be working through trauma-informed care, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and exposure-based therapy with a solution-focused approach, along with incorporating your faith, if applicable.
