My therapeutic approach is strengths-based and customized to meet each client's unique requirements. I use an interactive approach, working together with each client to establish and decide what their goals are for treatment. I approach clients with a paradigm that assures wellness, resilience, and strength while placing a high priority on harm reduction. I provide my clients with a considerate and distinct viewpoint by carefully referencing my personal experiences and relationships.

There are a few golden threads tying us together, serving as reminders of our most universal experience; a desire to be truly seen and heard by others, and to understand ourselves. To pursue these ideals, often, means you may be feeling lost, as if you're constantly performing for others or on display, lonesome, a lack of authenticity, as if there's a disconnect between you and "them", an inability to form or maintain meaningful, stable relationships, frustration, shame, self-hatred, self-sabotaging patterns of behavior. The connection between these is the healing in-between. One requires the other and you don't have to go it alone.

Entering an intimate space with yourself is not an easy task. But with the help of someone you trust, it makes the journey a bit easier to embrace. It is my belief that my job as a therapist is to help my clients connect the dots within their lives to enhance their mental health. This is done by unpacking, exploring and examining roadblocks from our past that are preventing us from being present in the present. This type of awareness helps to foster continual growth and grants access to understanding the story behind our behaviors.

I became a clinician because I know what it is like to feel unheard and disconnected from my communities, and I wanted to provide a space where people could come and feel seen and heard. I believe that therapy is about healing, which comes primarily from being understood, valued, and heard as your authentic self. I am continuing to grow in my own journey and am passionate about helping others navigate through their journey in ways that feel meaningful and supportive.

I believe therapy can offer a non-judgmental space where individuals are heard, supported, and understood. I approach therapy with values of collaboration, warmth, humor, and the individual’s unique history. Within therapy, I strive to create a space for the interplay of conscious and unconscious factors as essential expressions of identity. These factors may include past experiences that mysteriously show up in our present lives as patterns, but can be understood more fully towards healing and transformation.

Navigating life's set backs, challenges, and adversities can absolutely take a toll on our wellbeing and ability to function, which is why it is important to know that you do not have to work through these concerns alone. I believe in the power of healing through promoting self-awareness, autonomy and empowerment, and also in people's strength to move towards change. Though suffering is a part of life, something that all humans share, working to manifest helpful and sustainable coping mechanisms, and skills that will work to serve you long term makes a difference in the quality of life a person experiences.

Depression, anxiety, and the stresses of everyday life can cause deep pain. Many times these issues center around family, relationships, physical, mental and emotional health, as well as one's work environment and searching for a sense of purpose. In these difficult moments, you most likely feel overwhelmed and stressed out, with a lack of work and rest balance, and a sense of unhappiness that can manifest itself in harmful ways. You need healthy ways to cope. You want to experience joy, feel more in control, and obtain a general sense of well-being in all the important areas of your life. I can help you with that!
