“I can’t wait to see how high you soar”
-Michelle Obama
This quote represents the therapeutic space in many ways. Sometimes we get stuck and life turns into this everyday autopilot environment. We get into a routine and that routine turns into blah, and life becomes something that is not what you imagined or how you want it to be. You may ask yourself how life got in such a routine & may be wondering how to introduce some change so that you can, as Michelle Obama says, soar in the ways you know you were meant to.
The change can begin with therapy. My approach to therapy is client-centered and holistic, focusing on the unique needs and strengths of each individual. I utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques, including dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and solution-focused therapy, to support my clients in their journey towards mental well-being.
I’m currently in a Masters program at Walden University towards a degree in Clinical Mental Health, on track to becoming a therapist. My credentials include foundational training in DBT, as well as continuing education in holistic therapy practices. I am deeply invested in the mind, body and soul and how it is possible for change by knowing different techniques to bring peace of mind when life seems to be turning upside down.
I feel most influential as a therapist when I foster a deep and trusting therapeutic relationship with you and I witness breakthroughs in progress. My role as a therapist is to assist you in overcoming obstacles and achieving your goals by using strategies that work best for you. My hope is that you feel resilient and capable of handling life’s challenges while being more self-aware and in tune with your emotions after working with me.
When I am not working, I love traveling to exotic destinations – my favorite so far has been Thailand. My preferred form of self-care is doing my own nails. It takes a while, but it’s very therapeutic for me. I also love to dance and sing karaoke. Even though I never know the words, it’s super enjoyable to me!
