About My Clients
I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds. As I collaboratively create, define, and attain therapeutic goals throughout the process of therapy. I connect with clients through our similarities and differences by expressing genuine curiosity about their life experiences thus far. I work best with clients who are open to feedback and share the importance of self-accountability. At the same time, they understand the change process and the time it may take to reach their goals.
My Background and Approach
As a trauma-informed systemic therapist, I take a collaborative and humanistic approach as I provide psychotherapy to people. To better understand an individual’s worldview, meeting them where they are and understanding their perspectives, and presenting problems that have brought them to seek therapy is essential. So, connecting with people through a humanistic approach allows us to comprehend one another through fundamental connections that we share, such as emotions and sensations. Through collaboration and authenticity, I utilize myself as a tool through dynamic conversations and applying skills to encourage change. Change happens through insight and action. By recognizing problematic behaviors and those reinforcing them, we can adopt new strategies to foster change. I also use Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to help clients process and heal from their traumas and wounds.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
You know the phrase, "it takes a village to raise a child," That statement was my upbringing. Each family member played a role in my development and understanding. So, I believe in the support of others and its immense impact on a person's well-being. Furthermore, we can learn to accept differences and effectively communicate our concerns by understanding alternative perspectives, leading to compromise and achieving balance within our relational systems. Sometimes we get lost in our life journey, and all we need is a little guidance and support. I’m here for you if you’re ready to take that step. **I have a sliding scale fee available if needed.
