How I can help you
The first session is mostly about gathering as much background information about you as possible that will give me the opportunity to assess your needs. I mainly use a Cognitive Behavioural Approach which means that I will help you identify and change disturbing thoughts patterns that have a negative influence in behaviour and emotions.
Why I am specialized in this field
When I was doing my bachelors degree in Psychology in the UK I was chosen to become a Resident Assistant. My role consisted of helping new students cope with their new environment, fostering a community as well as being attentive to their overall well-being. That’s when I was certain that this path was my calling.
What I say to people who feel nervous or have concerns about therapy/assessment
Therapy is not about madness or sickness, it is about health and well-being. Give your self credit today for being courageous enough to take the first step to coming here to make sense of your issues.
What measures I use in assessments
I do not use formal assessments
