"Focusing on fairness and justice, a client has a chance to find what frequently has been lost: an ability to care for and stand up for themselves." -- Richard Brouilette, a former community organizer and psychotherapist. The core principle of my specialty practice is empowerment of individuals, groups and communities. And in turn, I'm empowered as well.
As a person-centred, compassionate clinician, and a multicultural practitioner I have a unique, sensitive and empowering perspective on how external and internal dynamics shape and impact the biopsychosocial experiences of human beings and communities. I cordially invite you to consider reaching out and to talk with me.
