My Approach
Personalized Approach
I consider every person and case to be unique, therefore my approach depends on each specific client, the nature of the problems they wish to address and their unique needs. I work in a humanistic and integrative way drawing on the perspectives of:
Person Centered Approach
CBT focuses on thoughts, feelings and behaviors, as well as on the links between them. It aims at the development of new thinking and behavior patterns to replace the old ineffective ones.
Narrative Therapy
Its goal is to facilitate the individual in reaching their inherent potential for healing, growth, authenticity, self-determination, realization and fulfillment.
Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy
DBT focuses on a balance between acceptance and change. The aim is for individuals to learn to regulate their emotions, also becoming able to regulate harmful/destructive behaviors.

Therapeutic Context
Establishing a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate environment that may promote exploration, growth and self-empowerment is my aim. This space will support you as you become more open, introspective, and aware of who you are as a whole—a person more than the sum of your parts—accept and re-establish a connection with all aspects of who you are, as well as expand on your strengths and acquire new abilities.
Therapeutic Relationship
My goal is to promote a therapeutic alliance built on collaboration, trust, respect and open, transparent communication. Together, you and I decide what the goals of therapy are, and also continuously reevaluate those. While therapy is different for everyone, you can be assured that I will tailor therapy to match your unique needs and pace and that I will “walk” by you, supporting your journey.
Request an appointment
In order for therapy to be effective, it is very important that you feel at ease with the therapist you choose.
An initial session will allow us to discuss any questions or concerns you might have regarding therapy
and give you a sense of what working with me will be like.
