With over 20 years of experience, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion and understanding. Whether it's anxiety, depression, trauma, medical issues, or infertility, I truly believe in the power of healing and growth, and I am honored to walk alongside others on their journey toward peace and well-being. My career began in the child welfare system, where I had the privilege of supporting children who had experienced trauma. Over the years, my work has expanded to include a wide range of survivors—those affected by sexual abuse, child abuse, domestic violence, human trafficking, and more. I’m deeply passionate about helping others heal from their past and find strength in their story. I also have experience working with individuals who are struggling to find direction or motivation in their lives. Whether it’s a young adult uncertain about their next steps, someone dealing with depression or grief, or an individual facing the overwhelming weight of anxiety, I’m here to provide guidance and support as they take meaningful steps toward progress and self-discovery. As a cancer survivor, I understand firsthand the emotional and physical challenges that come with chronic illness, pain, and infertility. This personal experience has deepened my ability to connect with others facing similar struggles, and I’m committed to helping them navigate these difficult paths with resilience and hope. Cultural competence is at the heart of my practice. Having lived and traveled across diverse parts of the world, I bring a deep respect and appreciation for the unique perspectives and experiences that each individual brings. I am committed to creating a space where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued, no matter their background.
