My communication style

I've been told that I am very easy to talk to as my style of counseling is largely conversational. There are times that I use homework and journaling for my clients, depending on the counseling relationship dynamic. I tend to incorporate psychoeducation about CBT and how Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors are connected.

My journey to mental healthcare

A common thread throughout my life has been that various people have told me that I am “easy to talk to”. In their explanations as to why they feel that way, it usually related back to the point that I came across as very non-judgmental. People seem to find comfort in being able to authentically present themselves without fear of being “judged”.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is a collaborative effort between myself and the client, where we work together to formulate goals that are realistic and measurable.

Our first session

The first session with me is mostly a “get to know you” type of scenario where I may ask several questions about the client's childhood and background. I'd want to know as much as I can about symptoms experienced and durations so that a baseline could be established.
