"We often become stuck in unhealthy thinking patterns or habits, which can be the result of difficult past experiences or phase of life stressors. However, I believe everyone has the ability to achieve desired change.

A true social worker at heart, I use system theories to focus on the interrelationships at work in an individual's life. I incorporate a strengths perspective to help face and challenge barriers to reaching preferred outcomes."

"Experience tells me that most people who seek counseling feel unable to make changes in their life that could bring them greater happiness. I consider it my responsibility and a privilege to facilitate your journey of self-empowerment to make these desired changes. Together we will explore how current patterns of feeling, thinking and acting could be altered by increasing mindfulness and self-compassion. While most of our focus is on the present and future, I also seek to honor your past by exploring how unresolved feelings may be hindering your growth and ability to meet personal goals."

"Change is hard regardless of whether it is expected or unexpected, wanted or unwanted. I can offer you a safe space as you experience change.

Together we seek understanding and meaning in these experiences to help you cope with and manage distress. Moving forward with wholeness and strength may involve looking back and exploring the past. Influences like culture and identity also play a critical role in finding healing and balance you seek."
