My website
With a background in public health, psychology, and social work, I bring a holistic perspective to the therapeutic process. My professional experience in child welfare, community health, and trauma-focused care has allowed me to support individuals and families navigating complex challenges. In my work, I have seen the resilience that emerges when people are given the space to feel understood, valued, and supported. I am committed to fostering a safe and collaborative environment where clients can explore their emotions and experiences without judgment. My approach is client-centered and strengths-based.
