I received my bachelors degree in 2014 at Texas State University in Psychology to which I then proceeded to complete my masters degree in Counselor Psychology from Texas A&M- Kingsville in 2016. What is your approach to therapy? My approach to therapy is heavily based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy but I do included techniques from TBRI (Trust Based Relational Intervention), Solution-focused, and Person-centered as well. In each session, I like to use my knowledge of each therapeutic technique to fit each client the best and work towards the goals they seek to complete. The art of therapy is to feel welcomed, non-judgmental, and working towards a better version of yourself to which I hope I can be a part of. What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you? Each session should feel like a progression to means of completing a wellness journey.
