Approaches

  • Attachment Theory

    Utilizing attachment theory, I delve into how early relationships with caregivers shape clients' beliefs about themselves and others. This exploration helps uncover patterns that influence emotional regulation and interpersonal dynamics, guiding clients towards more secure attachments and emotional resilience.

  • Feminist Theory

    Incorporating feminist theory enriches my counseling practice by highlighting power dynamics, social inequalities, and the impact of gender roles on clients' lives. It empowers clients to challenge oppressive systems, explore their identities authentically, and fosters equitable therapeutic relationships grounded in self-determination and mutual respect.

  • Narrative Therapy

    I utilize Narrative therapy to collaborate with clients on exploring and reshaping the stories they tell about themselves. By co-creating new narratives that empower and inspire growth, I facilitate a process where clients discover their strengths, cultivate resilience, and find renewed meaning in their lives.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

    Applying CBT through a trauma-informed lens in my practice helps clients gain profound insights into their lives by acknowledging and addressing the impact of past trauma on their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

  • Internal Family Systems

    I am IFS informed and incorporate it into my practice. This therapeutic approach promotes self-discovery and inner harmony, empowering clients to integrate fragmented aspects of their psyche and cultivate greater emotional resilience and well-being through their journey of healing.
