Together, we will focus on your concerns and goals, create a treatment plan that supports increased level of functioning, interpersonal effectiveness, empowerment, foster growth, healing and self-acceptance. We will develop skills to identify, challenge and reframe unhelpful thinking and behavioral habits, and cultivate individualized de-escalation, grounding and coping strategies. With increased mindfulness and emotion regulation you will have access to new adaptive behaviors and thinking that support wellbeing. My approach is guided by principles from Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems and Trauma Focused modalities. For our partnership to work, I will join you with authenticity and embrace our collaboration in a supportive, nonjudgmental, action oriented therapeutic environment. Focusing on balance and grit over perfection can reduce suffering and increase self acceptance and forgiveness
