On too many occasions life has presented you with a difficult set of obstacles. The current crisis jeopardizes your interpersonal relationships, career, and mental stability. As a client struggling with mental distress / trauma it is difficult to trust in a world you view as dishonest, dangerous, and judgmental. As survivors of a global pandemic we have all experience our share of trauma. As your clinician we'll work together to identify evidence based interventions that effectively reduce distress, improve communication and reestablish trust, hope, & intimacy in your interpersonal relationships and yourself. Healing is 1 call away
I use an eclectic approach to establish rapport and build trust in the therapeutic relationship CBT is my foundation; however teaching clients emotional regulation exercises provides the skills to de escalate emotions if aroused. I am trained in multiple theoretical approaches (CPT, EMDR, Schema and DBT) that are effective for alleviate distress and trauma.
As your mental health provider my professional aim is to provided a safe environment to empower you. Your development will consist of learning healthy coping interventions chosen to meet your individual needs.CBT, DBT and EMDR provide you with multiple approaches to form healthy alternative thoughts through the implementation of evidence based interventions.

My primary aim is to establish trust in our therapeutic relationship. Your presence exhibits your courageousness. It's difficult for you to feel empowered because you perceive you are losing the battle. You are resilient. An Overcomer. The eclectic approach I use in therapy will assist us with identifying your treatment goals and effective evidence based interventions to help you reach them.

I have found CBT and the ABC model effective for building rapport initially. This effective cognitive intervention introduces you to a structural way to identify, dispute, and replace erroneous thoughts that negatively impacting our thoughts ,feelings and behaviors. CBT builds your conscious awareness of thought allowing you to increase your ability to implement effective coping skills.
