My Focus Areas
My Therapy Style
I am a client-centered therapist, my focus is on building a rapport and connection with the client. I like to integrate psychoeducation, explore strengths, challenge, and incorporate coping skills that will help the client reach their recovery goals. I prefer for the client to lead and highlight what their focus for treatment is. I am empathetic and compassionate.
