Inside Jay's Care Approach
Jay’s work is centered on the belief that every person already has the capacity to grow—they just need the right tools, guidance, and space to do it. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), he helps clients recognize unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with realistic, empowering beliefs. His style is collaborative and direct, providing clients with both emotional support and practical steps they can apply in daily life.
