Empathy & Empowerment

What is my approach to therapy?

My therapeutic approach centers around establishing a secure environment where my clients feel comfortable sharing their concerns and expressing themselves. I firmly believe in meeting each individual at their current stage of the journey. To provide direct emotional support, I frequently employ active and empathic listening, maintain consistent eye contact, offer unconditional positive regard, and extend warm acceptance to my clients.

In collaboration with my clients, I work towards equipping them with healthy coping mechanisms to navigate life successfully. Recognizing the uniqueness and significance of each person’s life experiences, I emphasize the importance of starting the therapeutic process by meeting individuals where they are. Clients are encouraged to explore coping strategies such as journaling, incorporating exercise for stress relief, and engaging in creative activities to express challenging emotions.
