Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by stress, coping with past traumas, or just need someone to talk to, I'm here for you. My approach is all about meeting you where you are, without any judgment. We'll work together to tackle whatever challenges you're facing,

My approach

Within my practice, I integrate a diverse array of evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Among the frequently employed methodologies are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness. If you're interested, I also offer Faith-Based Therapy, which combines psychology with spirituality for a more holistic approach to healing. Integrating evidence-based modalities enables me to tailor our sessions to best address your unique needs, offering you a comprehensive and effective therapeutic experience.

My focus

My practice involves creating a safe space for individuals from various backgrounds, ages, and identities to address their concerns, promoting healing, resilience, and personal development. My areas of expertise cover a wide range of topics, from managing stress and anxiety to navigating difficult life transitions. I'm also well-versed in trauma recovery, grief counseling, and boosting self-esteem and confidence.

My communication style

You'll find me to be laid back and down to earth, with a genuine passion for helping others. Outside of work, I'm a foodie, a travel enthusiast, and a music lover. But enough about me - let's talk about you! In our sessions, you can expect a calm and peaceful atmosphere where you're free to express yourself without judgment. Together, we'll set goals and work towards creating positive changes in your life. Overall, clients can expect a therapeutic relationship that prioritizes their well-being, growth, and self-discovery, providing a safe space for exploration, reflection, and positive change.

My journey to mental healthcare

I had my first personal therapist when I was 8 years old, during my parents, marital difficulties. Unfortunately, my therapist at that time was not a good listener, and I did not feel safe in her presence. That situation motivated me to become a therapist because not only did I want to help people, but I wanted them to feel safe, heard, and supported. My passion has always been to empower individuals to make positive changes in their lives. I was seeing others reach their fullest potential drives me to do what I do.

My goals for you

Our collaboration is geared towards achieving meaningful and transformative outcomes. We'll work together to set and achieve goals that align with your personal growth and well-being.

My first session with you

During our first session together, our focus will be on establishing a foundation of trust and understanding. This session is informal and relaxed, aimed at getting to know each other better and exploring your needs, concerns, and goals. We'll take the time to discuss what brings you here and what you hope to achieve through therapy.
