Therapeutic Approaches Tailored to You
I believe therapy is a journey we take together, and I want you to feel completely comfortable and understood as we navigate it. To help you along your path, I draw from a range of proven approaches, and we’ll work together to find what resonates best with you. It’s all about tailoring our sessions to your specific needs and the goals you want to achieve. Some of the approaches we might explore together include:
Emotion-focused Therapy (EFT): We’ll explore and process your emotions, helping you better understand your feelings and promoting emotional healing.
Somatic Therapy: We’ll connect with your body to release stored tension, trauma, and emotional pain, fostering holistic healing by integrating mind and body.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): This approach helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on meaningful actions that align with your values and long-term goals.
Compassionate Inquiry: A deep, compassionate approach that helps you explore the root causes of your struggles, encouraging healing through self-awareness and kindness.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): DBT uses practical skills to help you manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and develop mindfulness. It offers tools for emotional regulation and coping with stress.
Motivational Interviewing (MI): A collaborative process where we explore your motivations for change, supporting you in finding the confidence to make lasting, positive shifts in your life.
Narrative Therapy: We’ll work together to explore and rewrite your life story, empowering you to shift the narrative toward strength, possibility, and self-agency.
Strengths-Based Therapy: Focusing on your strengths, skills, and resources, we’ll build on what you already have to support your healing and growth.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps us identify and challenge negative thought patterns, replacing them with healthier, more empowering ways of thinking and acting.
Mindfulness-Based Therapies: We’ll practice mindfulness techniques together to help you stay present, reduce stress, and develop a deeper self-awareness and compassion.
This integrative approach ensures that each client receives personalized care that addresses their needs and goals. My commitment is to walk alongside you on your journey, providing support, guidance, and the tools you need to create a life of authenticity, resilience, and well-being.
