More about Rizi

- LCSW
To provide information about how individuals' beliefs, feelings, and behavioral patterns may impact self-reflecting and relationships with others, I employ a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused therapy. Another important aspect of my work is to emphasize how trauma might impact people's perspectives on their future objectives.
I am also well aware of the need of adapting my therapy methods to each individual's distinct needs, which is why I employ a client-centered approach. We'll work together to break unhelpful patterns that stifle progress and reduce quality of life. I'll work with you on how to deal, regulate, and establish healthy ways to manage challenges and give your life more purpose if we work together.
