Nice to meet you
I work with clients using a person-centered, solution-focused approach, often incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy to help reframe negative thinking patterns. I tailor treatment based on each client’s motivation for change, helping them set achievable goals that support progress. I also use motivational interviewing and integrate mindfulness techniques when appropriate. My goal is to meet you where you are and support you in moving forward with clarity and intention.
