Seeking therapy can often be a difficult decision and can create anxiety and ambiguity about what the process may entail. As a clinician, I function from the foundation for a positive experience in therapy which first begins with establishing a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. Doing so, can encourage positive growth towards goals. Therapy is facilitated with transparency about what to expect from the process and goals are formulated collaboratively. Interventions are recommended based on individual's goals and needs. Effective and open communication is encouraged about therapeutic process and progress on goals. I also specialize in conducting evidence-based evaluations for Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum disorders (ASD), mood, anxiety, and personality disorders. Evaluations provide a clear, actionable roadmap for treatment, and understanding of cognitive, attentional, and emotional/personality functioning. In therapy, I use an integrated therapeutic approach in development of culturally sensitive client-centered treatment plans with focus on CBT & DBT, while using interventions stemming from motivational interviewing, mindfulness, & interpersonal therapy.
