I approach therapy as a journey and transformation, emphasizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship by building trust through open communication, attentiveness, and honesty. In sessions, I utilize a variety of modalities to meet the needs of clients and believe that people are fluid and require a space to be authentic, change their minds, and be curious of themselves and their environment. I have a commitment to all of my clients of being fully present and genuine during session time, I invite everyone to come as they are without pressure to conform.
I have experience working with individuals who were previously incarcerated, those with traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and clients who experience a wide variety of symptoms due to relationship struggles and life transitions. As an adoptee myself, I am interested in supporting individuals with navigating personal and cultural identity.
If you are ready to take an active role in achieving your goals and building a fulfilling life, let's collaborate and make it happen! I am available 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Monday–Wednesday and 8 a.m.–3 p.m. Thursday. I currently have the most availability Monday and Tuesday mornings. Send me your preferred day and time to check availability!
