My approach

The overall framework for my work is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an evidence-based approach.
I am a trained practitioner of Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy therapeutic approaches that empowers individuals to identify and challenge irrational beliefs, fostering healthier thought patterns and emotional well-being with an overarching goal of embracing unconditional self-acceptance and acceptance of uncomfortable emotions. Through a collaborative and evidence-based process, clients are guided towards achieving lasting positive transformations in their lives.
I integrate the following evidence-based and clinical practices and techniques, personalizing and tailoring my offering based on client needs and difficulties.
You can find out more about my psychotherapeutic approaches and tools under "Therapeutic Services".
Trauma and Resilience informed Approach
This approach recognizes the disruptive nature that past events that threaten our lives, safety and intergrity can cause in our present lives including our sense of self. Focusing on building emotional resilience is part of the process of working through traumatic past experiences.
Schema Therapy
This approach identifies and changes deeply rooted negative patterns, known as "schemas," which develop early in life due to unmet emotional needs. Connections between present life difficulties and past unmet needs can be helpful to have more self-compassion and understanding of one's self, but also to ultimately get our underlying needs met in a healthy way so that we stop engaging in unhelpful behaviors.
Positive Psychology and Focus on Well-being
Techniques drawn from positive psychology are used to strengthen the client's inner resources and foster unconditional self-acceptance through gratitude, self-compassion, mindfulness, savoring positive experiences, as well as incorporating meaning-making so that life becomes purposeful and meaningful and ultimately fulfilling.
Ecotherapy and nature-based approach
These techniques can foster well-being and nature connection to tackle difficult climate and eco-emotions in the context of climate change or to build resilience to other environmental stressors.
Walk and Talk therapy is also an option that can be discussed together, taking advantage of the lovely natural backdrop that the nearby city parks offer.
