Managed by Rula Health. Your call or email may go to a representative.
My focus is LGBTQI2-S Affirmative Therapy because I believe everyone deserves to be supported, understood, and celebrated during their therapy experience. Whether working individually with children or adults, with a couple or a family, I focus on establishing a safe environment. I believe that we can build a trusting relationship in order to help you understand the dynamics that are creating issues in your life and guide you to learn new ways to live with more fulfillment and joy.
I work with children, individuals, families, and couples. I use a combination of therapeutic styles, such as Person-Centered, Narrative, Attachment Theory, Solution-Focused, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My goal is to build a supportive bond with each client which in turn facilitates self-authenticity and increased satisfaction in relationships.
I will provide a compassionate hand that will support & empower you through your life journey. I will guide you in developing deeper connections in relationships, greater confidence in decision-making, and increasing your capacity for managing life's challenges.
