In my capacity as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, this experience has provided me with a deeper understanding of Psychotherapeutic approaches like Bowenian Theory, which describes the disorders that result from systemic issues, whether those within families or society as a whole.
Through psychoeducation, I have learned trauma-informed systemic approaches to assist in your journey. I am committed to helping others make positive changes in their lives for a better future. To help my clients flourish, establish a sense of normalcy, I aim to provide them with the tools they need.
I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.
