Are you ready to take the first step toward healing and a healthier, more balanced life? I work with individuals facing anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, or relationship difficulties, providing a safe, non-judgmental space to explore emotions and heal from past trauma. With personalized, culturally sensitive support and practical tools, I help build emotional resilience and manage life’s challenges. Together, we work toward improving mental health, boosting self-confidence, and cultivating healthier relationships, all while fostering personal growth and balance.
I help by providing a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to mental health, focusing on building emotional resilience and helping clients navigate life's challenges. My specialty includes using evidence-based therapies like ACT, CBT, DBT, and EFIT to offer personalized support tailored to each individual’s unique needs.
I understand how overwhelming life can feel when dealing with anxiety, low self-esteem, or relationship struggles. It can be difficult to take that first step toward healing, but you don't have to do it alone. I’m here to offer a safe, supportive space where you can feel seen, heard, and understood.
