I am a dedicated mental health professional who graduated from Florida International University. With three years of experience in the field, I have developed a deep understanding and expertise in addressing a wide range of mental health concerns. My practice is particularly focused on providing comprehensive support to young adults, adults, and children. I am committed to helping each individual navigate their unique challenges and work towards achieving mental well-being and resilience. My approach is tailored to meet the diverse needs of my clients, ensuring a compassionate and effective therapeutic experience.

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

In our first session together, the primary focus will be on rapport building and gaining a clear understanding of what brings you in. This initial meeting is crucial for establishing a comfortable and trusting therapeutic relationship. It's a time for you to share your story and for me to listen attentively, ensuring that your concerns and goals are fully understood. This foundational session sets the stage for our future work together, aligning our efforts towards addressing your needs effectively.

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

My greatest strength as a therapist lies in providing unwavering support, building strong rapport, and offering effective problem-solving techniques. These elements are integral to my practice, ensuring that each client feels genuinely heard, understood, and valued. By fostering a trusting and collaborative relationship, I am able to guide clients through tailored strategies that address their specific challenges, empowering them to find solutions and make meaningful progress towards their mental health goals.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I am deeply committed to fostering a therapeutic environment grounded in a person-centered approach. This approach, pioneered by Carl Rogers, is at the heart of my practice and guides my interactions with clients. It is based on the belief that every individual has the innate capacity for personal growth and self-healing. In my role, I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Humanistic

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, my practice is rooted in the Humanistic approach. I focus on understanding each client's unique perspective, emphasizing empathy, respect, and personal growth. This approach fosters self-awareness and empowers individuals to realize their full potential in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns to foster positive behavioral changes. Through this evidence-based approach, I empower individuals to develop coping strategies and build resilience for improved mental health and well-being.
