warm, friendly, able to be fully present in session, curious, and interested in understanding the client within a larger context.

I like to allow the client to lead the session in terms of choosing what is discussed and what feels most prominent for them. I will always center a client's lived experience. I also understand the importance of connecting the body and the mind.

unpack your mental and physical experience of emotions, work on reframing or challenging unhelpful thoughts, and incorporate positive coping mechanisms that feel accessible and sustainable.
