I work with Individuals, Couples and Families who can sometimes feel "stuck" not heard or unhappy. I believe that my clients are the experts and my goal is to guide them in understanding the "why," "how," and "what's next." I believe that even in our darkest times we all have strengths that can help us achieve the goals we want within our relationships with ourselves and the others in our life and my role in the therapeutic process is to guide you towards those strengths so together we can bring back into light they deserve. I like to go at my client(s) pace so to not push or create unattainable expectations.
I value and practice an holistic approach and understand each situation is unique while sharing similar experiences. I walk my clients through their experiences and its impact on their present life, without focusing too much on the "coulda, shoulda, woulda." I work at your pace, but as we know, no one has ever won a race by speeding in the first lap.
I provide a comfortable space as you share your life experiences and what brings you to connect with me. I believe therapy can be a therapeutic alliance between a therapist and client as this too is a professional relationship between two people that can lead to a healing life experience. I love what I do, and would like to join you on your journey.
