I will support you in reaching goals that you have identified and will work with you to reshape negative emotions, so you can process through the event and give it new meaning. I will collaborate with you to discuss what you would like to address in a way that you are most comfortable with. My approach combines person-centered mindfulness based theoretical perspective with narrative therapy, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy.
