Overview of the Therapy Process

  1. Assess
    Every person is unique. There is no one-size-fits-all counseling approach that works. I start with an assessment of the person’s strengths and challenges, and a screening of symptoms.
  2. Plan
    After the first (intake) session, we will discuss and agree on the goals of counseling and the number of sessions desired.  According to specific personals needs, counseling sessions could include an occasional guest (family member or partner).
  1. Collaborate
    I help clients express and overcome difficult emotions/experiences through a combination of art therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques. This ensures that self-expression and healing in both verbal and non-verbal manners.
  2. Re-assess
    We periodically re-assess the improvement, discuss what techniques have helped the most, and plan whether any changes in the treatment are necessary, whether goals have been successfully met, and whether referral to additional services is needed.
