"It is the client who knows what hurts, what directions to go, what problems are crucial, what experiences have been deeply buried." (Carl Rogers, 1961) I view therapy as a journey that is led by clients and work toward guiding others through the therapeutic journey by providing a supportive environment. Therapy is tailored to people's styles, growth edges, and strengths. A collaborative relationship between a therapist and client is essential to working toward self-growth and wellness. I value the use of research informed techniques. I join clients on their therapeutic journey with the ultimate goal of wellness.
I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in clinical psychology. I have had the opportunity to provide treatment to various populations in different settings, including counseling centers, inpatient hospitals, clinics, correctional centers, and community mental health facilities.
I have worked with individuals of diverse age groups and cultural backgrounds, and appreciate the need for treatments uniquely tailored to each individual. I also have experience working with couples. I attend trainings frequently to stay current with empirically validated treatments to ensure that I am providing effective treatment.
