I am a compassionate and experienced therapist specializing in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. With a focus on building strong relationships and fostering personal growth, I empower clients to address issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am a culturally competent therapist. My approach is collaborative and tailored, providing a safe space for meaningful change and lasting solutions.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and discuss your goals for therapy. I’ll ask questions to understand your challenges, strengths, and what you hope to achieve. Together, we’ll create a plan tailored to your unique needs, and I’ll ensure you feel heard and supported every step of the way. This initial session sets the foundation for a collaborative and productive therapeutic journey.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths as a therapist lie in my ability to create a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their emotions and challenges. I am skilled at helping clients develop practical strategies to manage anxiety and depression, process trauma, and improve communication within relationships. My extensive experience in couples and family therapy enables me to address complex dynamics effectively, fostering deeper understanding and stronger connections.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I work best with individuals, couples, and families who are ready to make positive changes in their lives. Whether you’re feeling stuck, navigating relationship challenges, or seeking to heal from past traumas, I provide the support and guidance you need to move forward. My ideal clients are those seeking to improve their emotional well-being, strengthen their connections, and develop practical skills to thrive.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

With 8 years of experience utilizing CBT, I help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that may be contributing to emotional distress. Together, we develop practical coping strategies and reframe negative thinking patterns to foster healthier perspectives and actions. I tailor CBT interventions to each client’s specific needs, focusing on measurable progress and real-life application.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I specialize in SFBT, guiding clients to identify and build on their existing strengths to create meaningful solutions. With a focus on achievable goals and small steps forward, I empower clients to address challenges efficiently and see tangible progress in fewer sessions. This future-oriented approach is particularly effective for individuals seeking rapid, targeted support.

Couples Counseling

In couples counseling, I help partners navigate communication challenges, resolve conflicts, and rebuild trust. By fostering a safe and neutral environment, I encourage open dialogue and mutual understanding. I integrate evidence-based approaches to enhance emotional connection and align shared goals, helping couples strengthen their relationship.

Family Therapy

I have extensive experience working with families to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and foster healthy dynamics. My approach is collaborative, addressing individual roles within the family system and promoting understanding. I focus on building stronger connections and equipping families with tools to navigate future challenges together.

Gottman method

As a practitioner trained in the Gottman Method, I use research-based techniques to help couples enhance their emotional intimacy, manage conflict effectively, and deepen their bond. I employ tools like the “Sound Relationship House” to assess and strengthen the foundation of relationships, creating lasting and meaningful changes for couples.
