Psychotherapy

As a psychotherapist, my sessions are deeply rooted in empathy, collaboration, and a commitment to fostering a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. I believe that each individual is unique, and therefore, I tailor my approach to meet the specific needs, preferences, and goals of each client.

Here are some key aspects of my approach to Music and Movement sessions:

My approach is client-centered. I prioritize the client’s autonomy and agency, empowering them to take an active role in their healing journey. I aim to create a non-judgmental and supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and respected.

My approach to mental health is a holistic one.  I recognize that mental health is influenced by various factors, including biological, psychological, social, and cultural dimensions. My approach considers the whole person, addressing not only symptoms but also underlying issues and environmental factors that may impact well-being.

My approach is strength based. I believe in highlighting and building upon clients’ strengths, resources, and resilience. By focusing on what is going well in their lives, clients can gain confidence and motivation to overcome challenges and achieve their therapeutic goals.

My approach uses evidence based frameworks.  While honoring the uniqueness of each client, I integrate evidence-based techniques and interventions from different therapeutic modalities, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-informed care. I stay informed about the latest research and developments in the field to ensure the effectiveness of my interventions.

My approach often incorporates mindfulness and self-compassion practices into therapy to help clients cultivate present-moment awareness, emotional regulation, and a kinder relationship with themselves. These practices can be transformative in promoting mental well-being and resilience.

My approach is always sensitive to the cultural backgrounds, identities, and beliefs of my clients. I strive to create a culturally competent and inclusive therapeutic environment where clients feel seen, understood, and validated.

 Music and Movement is a collaborative process, and I work closely with clients to identify their goals, clarify their values, and develop personalized treatment plans. I encourage open communication and feedback to ensure that the therapeutic approach remains relevant and effective.

 My ultimate aim is to support clients in not only alleviating immediate distress but also fostering long-term growth, self-discovery, and resilience. I view therapy as a journey of self-exploration and transformation, and I am committed to accompanying clients every step of the way.

Overall, my approach to Music and Movement sessions is guided by a deep respect for the inherent dignity and potential of each individual, as well as a belief in the power of the therapeutic relationship to facilitate healing and positive change.
