Often it can be difficult to deal with painful life circumstances on your own. Therapy with an experienced professional can help you address these difficult issues in a supportive yet challenging environment. I understand that there is no one approach to deal with life's tough issues. I am committed to working collaboratively with my clients to meet their goals and tailoring therapy to their specific needs and experiences. Additionally, I am deeply committed to providing culturally responsive treatment to every client I work with. I believe this is crucial for any type of psychotherapy to be effective and helpful.
My specialties and practice areas include: Trauma treatment including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR); Immigration Psychological Evaluations, Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners; Racial/ethnic minorities; Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) clients; Muslim LGBT individuals; Interpersonal conflicts; Depression; Anxiety.
Accepting clients from all states except Alaska, California, Guam, Iowa, Hawaii, Louisiana, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands. CALL FOR YOUR FREE CONSULT TODAY and we can take the time to understand your needs.
