As your therapist, I tailor my approach depending on your needs. It is my commitment to offer you a safe space without judgement and provide an empathetic ear. Each person is unique which means that the approach should be unique to you. My goal is to help you understand behavior patterns which will lead to a better understanding of one's self and interactions with one's emotions. I will provide you with concrete coping strategies and communication techniques to assist in your journey. As a therapist, I want to help in your journey to be your most authentic self and build healthy connections with confidence.
CBT & DBT can be effective when dealing with stress,emotions, depression and anxiety. The key to DBT is acceptance of your thoughts and emotions without judgement. Focusing on the present without fixating on the past or worrying about the future. CBT focuses on changing irrational thought patterns and behaviors.
Life gets busy and can bring many challenges that make it difficult to make space for yourself to process emotions, explore communication patterns and identify past traumas that have impacts on your day day. I am here to support you in your journey by providing concrete techniques in a safe, non judgemental environment.
