Individual Therapy
In my work with individuals, I always respect and honor each client’s personality, cultural background, and unique way of learning. It is my goal to create a safe container inside which you feel free to sit with and move through tough emotions, memories, and experiences.
In our sessions I will help you:
- Acknowledge and embrace internal strengths
- Inspire hope
- Provide psycho-education around coping strategies, mental health needs, and paths to facilitate positive change
- Goal setting and achievement
- Release fear around vulnerability and anger
- Process and heal from trauma
- Unravel old patterns that impede positive growth
- Heal from breakups
- Learn tools to improve self-advocacy
Over time we will develop strong coping methods for you to use in your life. You will learn how to stand confidently inside of your truth. You will have the opportunity to express whatever you feel you have to hold in silence in the world.
Some tools I utilize:
Talk Therapy
Expressive Arts Media
Mindfulness
Role-Playing
Humor
The space we share in session is always a space of trust and honest communication. I believe in collaboration - we are in this together. Individual therapy is an opportunity for you to become more empowered to live a beautiful, fulfilling life.
Family Therapy
My belief in and passion for the family unit has led me to develop a strong family therapy practice. My aim is to instill concrete change within the family unit in order to create a new foundation based in positivity, support, and acceptance.
I can help families address such needs as:
Effective Communication
Healing from Trauma
Cultivating Secure, Healthy Attachments with One Another
In addition to weekly or bi-weekly family therapy, I am skillful with case-advocacy and linking families to necessary resources. I am also driven to facilitate more psycho-educational support groups for caregivers.
The family is the starting point of community in a child’s life, and acts as the focal point for development and growth for each member. I am here to ensure that you have a space to navigate through whatever may be in the way of a happy family dynamic.
