I draw on multiple theories (attachment, person centered, CBT, motivational interviewing, family systems, narrative) to reflect how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviors. I help remove shame/guilt through education and reframing.
My approach will be based on what best fits the client/s. The approaches I used are Psychodynamic, Solution Focused, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Person-centered. I want/ like clients to walk away lighter than when they first walked in.
