Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Client will be presented with an empathic professional who will meet you where you are. I begin by learning about the client , goals for treatment, and mechanisms by which they would like to do so. I also like to use the miracle question technique to establish long-term goals. I create a safe environment for clients by remaining nonjudgmental and meeting the client where they are. I believe the essentials for the therapeutic relationship are empathy, mutual understanding of expectations, and respect.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

The values that I bring to therapy is that everyone has strengths and has the ability to change. I tailor my approach by collaborating with clients. I view therapy as an opportunity to learn more about one self and what one needs to succeed in their lives. I strongly believe that mental health is integral to overall health and wellbeing.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Primarily, I have worked in community behavioral health settings. I have served populations including those of low SES, LGBT+, adults, children, and adolescents. I have also served those from Hispanic, African American, and Caribbean descent. I am eclectic but gravitate more towards CBT, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing. I specialize in anxiety and mood disorders. I also have experience with neurodivergence, trauma, and adjustment disorders.
