I graduated from Pace University with my Master's Degree as a Licensed Mental Health Therapist and Substance Abuse Counselor. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy as each individual has specific treatment needs as each person's experiences and the emotional impact of those experiences are unique to that individual. This is why my theoretical approach is humanistic and client-centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Adler, and Gestalt.
I have worked with people who have negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood swings, substance use, anxiety, a history of trauma, and a sense of who they are. I believe in the importance of collaboration, so forging a therapeutic alliance is important.
It allows for trust and deeper therapeutic work to occur, which will allow the individual to achieve their goals effectively. This allows the individual to see. As a therapist, my values and morals are not important.
