I believe in the power of consistent support and structure to guide clients on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. We're plugged into a fast paced world where we are bombarded with issues when we have responsibilities of our own. We go to war with our emotions and thoughts which makes it hard to tend to what excites us. When our minds are constantly running, it can feel impossible to be engaged in the present moment let alone dig deeper. I place a strong emphasis on emotional processing, anxiety management, and the exploration of feelings related to dependency and fear of loneliness.

You ask yourself "why did I just say that?" It's hard to stop thinking about how you messed up a conversation, a task, or an assignment. People say "you are too sensitive" when you share how you feel. You don't like how you speak impulsively. Your family and heritage are important to you but there is tension. You think about your past in negative ways and it's hard to focus on the present moment. It's hard to feel relaxed in your body. At times you feel restless and at other times stiff and numb. Feeling balanced is tough.

It is hard to say what my ideal client is because I believe that I am capable of working with various types of people and that each person is unique. Even with a "challenging" client, I have learned a lot and found value in the work. With that being said, my ideal client has a history of trauma that has impacted their ability to connect with others and themselves. They are struggling with body image, intrusive thoughts, and anxiety about how others are perceiving them. They want to be empowered to advocate for themselves when necessary and create a wellness routine that serves as a preventative measure for mental health problems.

Psychological symptoms can surface and compromise your happiness and functioning during these struggles.

Culturally Sensitive Therapists
How does culturally sensitive therapy work?
A culturally sensitive therapist will tailor their approach to therapy based on the individual client’s background. This may include changing their style of interaction (asking open-ended questions vs. being the “expert” voice), their affect (seeming warm or “neutral”), how much personal information they disclose about themselves, and more. It’s also important for a culturally sensitive therapist to acknowledge larger societal forces that may impact their client due to the client’s background.
How effective is culturally sensitive therapy?
Some professionals have expressed concern about highlighting cultural differences in therapy, suggesting that it might promote stereotypes and harm the therapeutic bond; however, many experts agree that cultural sensitivity tends to strengthen the connection between therapist and client and help clients feel heard and understood. A culturally sensitive approach to therapy can be especially helpful for those not in the cultural majority, especially when combined with proven therapies like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
What are the limitations of a culturally sensitive approach to therapy?
While being culturally sensitive is generally a valuable skill to have, a therapist cannot treat every client from a similar background the same way. Each client is an individual with their own values, personal preferences, and life experiences that will need to be explored during therapy. In addition, it’s rare for a therapist and client to have identical backgrounds, so there may be some cross-cultural differences to navigate during therapy, but a culturally sensitive therapist can do so with empathy and respect.
Can culturally sensitive therapy be done online?
Yes, online therapy using a culturally sensitive approach can be beneficial. Therapy can sometimes be difficult to access for clients from diverse backgrounds and socioeconomic standing. The array of mental health support available through the internet makes it possible for clients to find a good therapist match regardless of where they live.
