In our first session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy and identify ways to support your progress. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to examine how thoughts shape emotions and experiences, helping you challenge unhelpful thoughts to improve your feelings. I also integrate Mindfulness and Positive Psychology to foster a balanced, empowering approach to mental well-being.
