When I reflect on my values & approach to working with clients, I communicate the need for holistic care. I firmly believe the key to improved health and continued maintenance of health is to address the person in a holistic manner. I also utilize education & encourage self advocacy to ensure that values relevant to you will always be brought into our treatment space. Other values that are pertinent to my work include: transparency, vulnerability, consistency & compassion.
I focus on reaching the following communities: BIPOC, Young/Mid Age Adults specifically during life transitions, BDSM/Kink & Adults w/ Bipolar Disorder. I like to incorporate various approaches but want to ensure that we are approaching the matter holistically. I often incorporate modalities/approaches from CBT, Culturally Sensitive & Emotionally Focused.
As we collaborate & build rapport, I anticipate to become your safe place to process your mental health, life, and issues that directly impact you. It takes bravery to make any change, talk about uncomfortable things, or highlight areas of improvement. Having support and guidance along the way makes the experience a bit more bearable.
Realistically, healing is not linear, we do not progress at the same rate and you do some of the hardest work in between sessions. At this time, I currently only offer telehealth only sessions in my private office with fairy lights & it's always good music playing in the background (yes, you can always request your preferred tunes).
Two of my goals as a therapist is one, not be a time a bandit, our time is valuable and I want to maximize our time together so we can two, allow you to be so effective in your self-management you can fire me! So, let's do the work and let me hold space for you so you can start you mental health journey.
