Foundation
I strive to build a relationship with my clients based upon trust and empathy in a collaborative setting that is goal-oriented, but also makes them feel relaxed & at ease.
ethos
My hope for clients is that, through therapy, they will see their inherent worth and value as human beings, enabling them to pursue their dreams and goals contentedly.
APPROACH
As a proponent of Positive Psychology, my focus is not just on problems but on clients’ individual strengths and their unique goals and aspirations in life.
FOCUSED THERAPIES
cognitive behavioral Therapy
A form of treatment that has been shown to be effective for a range of problems including anxiety, ADHD, adjustment difficulties, and more, that usually involves efforts to change thinking and behavioral patterns.
Problem-Solving Therapy
Provides patients with tools to identify and solve problems that arise from life stressors, improve overall quality of life, and reduce the negative impact of psychological and physical illness.
Positive Psychology
Focuses on life’s positive aspects — well-being, happiness, and satisfaction, so you can build a life of purpose, rich with meaning that allows the individual to flourish and thrive.
Supportive Therapy
Helps alleviate symptoms, improve self-esteem, restore relation to reality, regulate impulses and negative thinking, and reinforce the ability to cope with life stressors and challenges.
