A terapia é um lugar de acolhimento para expor seus pensamentos, mas não apenas isso. É também um lugar de suporte para explorar, se conectar, se entender melhor, elaborar sobre mudanças de vida, dificuldades e adversidades. Um lugar para se expressar autenticamente, melhorar a comunicação, empoderar-se, repensar e encontrar novos sentidos para as coisas. Baseio meu trabalho nas experiências e propósitos de vida da pessoa, nos recursos pessoais já presentes, com atenção aos contextos sociais e culturais, e aos diferentes fatores que influenciam nossas vidas e decisões.

Applying theoretical application into practice varies from person to person as I assess, analyze, and evaluate the “self” through one on one counseling, therapy, observation, active listening, communication, surveys, and much more through clinical intervention and exploration. My main focus is YOU within a deep, empathic, and respectful atmosphere TOGETHER we can discover who the “SELF” truly is. Displaying a welcoming non- judgmental environment while setting the primary goal to establish a therapeutic alliance through confidentiality, empathic understanding, unconditional positive regard, respect, and dignity.
