            Therapy is a safe, supportive, empathic space to explore the aspects
            of self you may not be willing or able to explore within the context
            of friendships or other personal relationships. Meeting with a
            therapist can be extremely nerve wracking and uncomfortable at first,
            but if open to the process, it can be one of the most valuable
            experiences of your life. I am here to provide you with a safe and
            nonjudgmental environment for you to examine your life, tell your life
            story, uncover-maladaptive behavior patterns and learn evidenced-based
            coping skills to make changes in your life to achieve the life you
            truly desire. My agenda is about you and your wellness. My hope is to
            help you discover new insights, gain understanding and learn about the
            positive and negative impacts of how early life experiences play a
            role in your current mode of functioning.
          </p>

            My role as a therapist is to work collaboratively with you to help you
            overcome the barriers that are preventing you from moving forward. The
            psychotherapeutic treatment modalities that mainly use are
            Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioral and Narrative Therapy

            <b>Psychodynamic</b> is known as insight oriented therapy. The goal of
            Psychodynamic Therapy is to help you gain self-awareness and
            understanding of the influences of the past on present behavior. In
            other words, the psychodynamic approach will enable you to examine
            unresolved conflicts and symptoms that arise from past dysfunctional
            relationships and how it manifest themselves in current relationships.
          </p>
  
          <p>
            <b>Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy</b> focuses on helping you deal with a
            very specific problem such as phobias, addictions, depression and
            anxiety. The underlying concept behind CBT is people often experience
            negative thoughts or feelings that are reinforced by faulty beliefs.
            Such beliefs can result in problematic behaviors that can affect
            numerous life areas, including family, romantic relationships, work
            and academics. The goal of CBT is to help you combat these destructive
            thoughts and behaviors by working collaboratively with you to identify
            the problematic beliefs. In order for CBT to be effective, you must be
            ready and willing to spend time and effort to analyze your thoughts
            and feelings. Such self-analysis can be difficult, but it is a great
            way to learn more about how internal states impact outward behavior.
          </p>
  
          <p>
            <b>Narrative Therapy</b> Conversations can shape new realities and
            meanings of our livings. The meaning we build for our lives can heal
            and provide hope, change and restoration.
