I believe that the client is the expert of their own lives. I find great importance in taking into consideration the historical and current social, political, economic, and cultural impacts on each client. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and collaborative space for each of my clients where they feel received whilst working toward their definition of healing in the process. My goal is to support clients in stepping into their most authentic and empowered version of themselves using a strengths-based approach. Treatment includes a collaborative, individualized plan for therapy using a humanistic, person-centered approach.
I enjoy working with the following: teens, young adults, couples, Trauma (intergenerational, CPTSD, PTSD), BIPOC Issues, Depression/Anxiety, Relationship Concerns, Communication Skills, Boundary Setting, Life Changes/Adjustments, Grief and Loss, Self-Esteem, Coping skills, Body Positivity, Spirituality.
