As a doctor of public health and stress and anxiety specialist, I work with individuals, communities, and organizations to improve their mental health, well-being, and overall personal and professional effectiveness. I believe that mental health is not just an individual issue, but is shaped by broader cultural, societal, and communal factors. I work with clients to address not only their immediate mental health concerns but also the underlying root causes that may be contributing to their distress. I operate from a holistic framework that examines wellness across various dimensions of life to help find the best version of "You!"
I prioritize building strong therapeutic relationships based on trust, empathy, and non-judgment. My approach is integrative and client-centered, under the premise that no two clients are the same and that a personalized approach is key to creating change for diverse individuals. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies to tailor to your unique needs.
In our sessions, you’ll gain insight into your triggers and discover how to effectively manage your thoughts. Clients often report feeling more in control of their emotions, more connected to their values, and better equipped to handle the challenges of everyday life. If you’re ready to take the first step, schedule a 15 minute consultation today.
