I believe that it is important to tailor therapy to specific individuals, settings and presenting concerns. Therefore, I view my theoretical orientation as integrative with my foundation grounded on person-centered, feminism, and multiculturalism. I consider the therapeutic relationship to be the most important factor in the healing process.

I incorporate person-centered interventions to bring out the best version of you and honor your healing journey.
Life is constantly changing, but not everyone adjusts to it in the same way. This unpredictability can lead to feelings of overwhelm, unpreparedness, powerlessness and insecurity. Sometimes, it's challenging to manage our own response to change or let alone the reactions of those close to us. What worked for others may not work for us, but that doesn't mean we should give up on our potential.

You feel burdened, like you’re carrying a refrigerator on your back through a land mine- almost anything or anyone could set you off. You hoped Life would be more peaceful, but as time goes on, your anxiety remains deep. Stress plants itself in your bones and reverberates through your whole body. It’s the same, no matter what you try. The voice of failure reverberates in your head. “You won’t make it, so why even try?” It all feels so hopeless.

There are many benefits of counseling. Counseling helps us figure things out; it can help us achieve our goals, and it can help us mend or improve important relationships in our lives. It can help us find reasons to live and new ways to love ourselves, and it can help us learn to cope with what life has handed us or to grieve what has been taken from us. And overall, counseling can offer reassurance that things are going to be ok. There are a number of reasons people just like you come to counseling; struggling in a relationship, family conflict, help establishing boundaries, processing past trauma, or having problems at work.
