I believe the fundamental vehicle of change is the relationship between the counselor and the client. Therapy is a collaborative approach in which the therapist helps clients confront their issues by staying present and exploring their narratives and relationships through different dynamics and perspectives.
My approach to counseling involves elements of humanistic theory, Gestalt, existential and experiential therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, affirmative therapy, mindfulness, trauma focused therapy, and family systems and multicultural theories. I provide counseling to LGBTQ people, people living with HIV/AIDS, as well as families. Areas of focus include life transitions, trauma, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, abuse, gender, sexuality, and family issues. |
