Therapy Style: Holistic, Non-judgmental, Versatile
Several years ago, I had the privilege of living outside of the Unities States. As an expatriate, I observed behaviors and experience diverse thoughts that were different from American culture. I began to ask, “Why are behaviors and cultural norms different?” These experiences led me to study psychology. I present empathy, compassion, sincerity, non-judgment, a spirit of acceptance/understanding, and collaboration. I am interested in your personal experiences and unique culture that influences and shapes how you perceive yourself, others and the world.
Therapeutic alliance is built upon belief in the client’s strengths and partnership. With over twenty years of experience working in mental health with diverse populations, I learned there is an intersection between mental and physical health. My clinical approach is holistic with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as the leading approach. that facilitates a healthier pattern of thinking. Elements of Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT) are introduced; for example, mindfulness practices and radical acceptance. I encourage participation in healthy eating and living to support mental wellness. Practical tools are recommended, in collaboration with a multidisciplinary team and possibly your other providers, to support cognitive and physical well-being.
