It is important to create a safe, supportive and collaborative therapeutic experience with my clients. We work together in the process of setting treatment goals. Once those goals are set, I like to integrate various treatment modalities to assist each client in their process. There are no cookie-cutter approaches. Everyone has their own unique needs and dreams and it is important that their individuality is factored into the process.
Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With
How My Own Struggles Made Me a Better Therapist
Yes, I believe that my life experiences do help me be a better and authentic therapist. I believe it is important to people that someone comes from a place of understanding and not from something they read in a textbook. My life experiences have also taught me to keep an open mind and allows me to even learn and grow as I work with each client.
What Makes up a Problem?
In my opinion, it has never been "nature vs nurture," it's more of AND instead of VS. Our genetics can set us up for certain behaviors and perspectives, but add a toxic home environment to that..I beleive it's important to explore BOTH aspects and seek balance.
