I am an optimistic professional who always believes in the best in people. As a mental health counselor, my ambition is to help each individual unlock their full potential and to support parents and teachers in achieving this goal as well. My journey in this beautiful and rewarding field has been marked by numerous successes in helping people identify and transform their thoughts and beliefs. I've had the privilege of guiding others to recognize their automatic thoughts and have effectively implemented behavioral techniques and cognitive modifications. Together, we can create positive and lasting change!
I believe that structured, directive sessions, combined with a variety of techniques such as journal writing and art therapy, have produced positive results and opened lines of communication for children, adolescents, and adults. I strongly feel that a collaborative effort between the counselor and teachers is essential for the success of the individuals we
My guiding philosophy is grounded in the principles of Motivational Interviewing (MI), the Transtheoretical Model (Stages of Change), and the principles of Cognitive-Behavioral Psychology, particularly Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) and EMDR. Everything is according to every client's needs.
