My Background and Approach
I am currently pursuing my graduate degree in counseling and have received extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). As a bisexual counselor, I bring a deep understanding and personal insight into LGBTQ+ issues, specializing in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, teens, and those navigating grief or loss. My CBT approach helps clients reframe negative thoughts and develop effective coping strategies, enhancing their emotional well-being. With DBT, I provide tools for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. My personal experience as a bisexual individual enriches my ability to offer affirming support for identity exploration and related challenges. For teens, I address developmental concerns to foster positive growth, while my work with those dealing with grief aims to facilitate healing and adjustment. By integrating these specialties, I provide personalized care that promotes resilience and meaningful, lasting change.
