Everyone experiences some form of mental distress throughout their lives, and one must not underestimate the importance of having someone to go to. While it may seem uncomfortable talking about your stressors, this is often the first step towards healing. Balancing what life has to offer should not be done alone. Efforts will be made in collaboration to support you in overcoming these difficulties through a strength-based culturally sensitive approach.

I have extensive experience providing care to clients across the lifespan in various settings, including therapeutic day school, inpatient and outpatient hospitalization, and community health. I am here to be your ally in your mental health journey.

Together, we will create a safe and supportive space where you can freely express your concerns and work towards healing. Through a blend of medication management and lifestyle adjustments, we will find what works best for you. My goal is not just to alleviate symptoms, but to empower you to lead a fulfilling life filled with resilience and self-awareness.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter
