I tailor my approach to each client's needs, while remaining grounded in evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and trauma-informed care. When we meet, we will talk about what brought you to this point, clarify where you'd like to go, and develop practical strategies to move forward with confidence and intention.
