I love working with a variety of age groups and value diversity, culture, and individualism. My approach is culturally sensitive and person-centered. I am compassionate, non-judgmental, and caring. I believe that the differences we have is what makes this world beautiful.
Everyone has a story to tell and it takes a lot of courage to tell your story. One of my priorities in therapy is making sure my clients feel safe, heard and seen. Whether my clients prefer working with someone a bit more directive or just need a place to vent, I tailor therapy and use a combination of different interventions to fit your needs.
