About Me

I am a licensed clinical psychologist offering individual therapy for anxiety, conduct problems, mood disorders, and identity issues. I use evidence-based methods to reduce symptoms and teach practical coping skills.

Approach

A Person-Centered (Client-Centered) approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to ameliorate symptoms and regain sense of control. "Our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it." Gebran Khalil Gebran At the core of this therapeutic philosophy (Person-centered therapy) is the belief that each individual possesses the innate capacity for growth, self-awareness, and change. By creating a safe and nonjudgmental space, we focus on understanding your unique experiences, emotions, and perspectives. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a highly effective therapeutic modality that focuses on the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By identifying and challenging unhelpful or distorted thinking patterns, we can work together to reshape your beliefs and develop more adaptive thoughts that promote emotional and cognitive well-being. Through a collaborative process, we will explore and understand the impact of your thoughts on your emotions and actions, allowing you to gain a sense of control over your own inner world. Additionally, we will incorporate practical strategies, such as relaxation techniques, problem-solving skills, and behavioral experiments, to help you actively engage in positive changes and overcome challenges. By combining the person-centered approach with CBT techniques, I strive to empower you in finding effective solutions, managing stress, and fostering personal growth.
