Managed by Rula Health. Your call or email may go to a representative.
My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in both empathy and clinical precision. I strive to create a safe, judgment-free space where clients feel heard and empowered. I integrate evidence-based psychopharmacology with a whole-person perspective, considering emotional, physical, social, and spiritual wellness. Theoretical Approaches I Commonly Use: I primarily draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed practices.
I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating a wide range of mental health concerns. I specialize in treating individuals with ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, eating disorders, and stress-related insomnia.
My communication style is warm, honest, and collaborative. I believe in active listening, clear explanations, and shared decision-making. I aim to make each session feel like a safe and supportive conversation, not a checklist.

My communication style is warm, honest, and collaborative. I believe in active listening, clear explanations, and shared decision-making. I aim to make each session feel like a safe and supportive conversation, not a checklist. I adapt my tone and approach based on the individual's needs, whether they prefer straightforward guidance, gentle encouragement, or a blend of both.
