As a dedicated and empathetic therapist, I am committed to providing a safe space for self-exploration and growth. With a client-centered approach, I aim to understand your unique experiences and collaboratively work towards positive change. My goal is to support you on your journey, fostering a trusting therapeutic relationship built on respect, confidentiality, and a genuine commitment to your well-being. Together, we can navigate challenges, develop coping strategies, and uncover the strengths within you to promote lasting positive transformation.
In my practice, I embrace a person-centered, strength-based approach that warmly acknowledges you as the expert in your own journey. I believe the most effective techniques arise from your unique experiences and understanding of yourself. Together, we'll explore your strengths and resources, working collaboratively to enhance and build upon them.
I invite you to connect with a Zoom or phone call, providing an opportunity for us to have initial connection. This initial conversation is a chance for you to decide if continuing with sessions feels right for you. I'm flexible and open to starting the conversation through messages, ensuring your comfort in taking the first step towards positive change.
