I specialize in addressing psychological trauma and life adjustment challenges. I can also work with cases involving clinical depression and anxiety. The activities and strategies I use in the sessions may differ from one client to another because I try to adjust to what my clients need and what their goals are. My foundation is a client-centered approach and I incorporate skills and techniques from motivational interviewing, existential approaches, exposure-based therapies, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness. I also use the skills I've learned from other fields of healthcare and education when needed. I am also a licensed pharmacist so I am comfortable with the idea of my clients taking medication if they have to. I also refer to a psychiatrist if I assess that a client may need pharmacological intervention. Lastly, if needed, I can work with psychiatrists to check on how we can complement each other's work of helping the client.
