LMHC, 7 years of experience
Hi, I am a licensed and experienced therapist passionate about helping people improve their emotional well-being. I have worked with individuals from diverse cultures and backgrounds and believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients. I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches to best meet the unique needs of each individual, couple, or family I work with.
In our first session, my goal is to start building rapport using active listening in a safe environment.
Being a good listener and my unconditional positive regard are my greatest strengths that combined they lead my clients to succeed in their healing process.
I love working with adults 18 and older experiencing difficulties in their lives.

Couples counseling focuses on improving relationship satisfaction and conflict resolution between couples. Whether through in-person or online couples therapy, the ultimate goal for a counselor is to help build a healthy relationship and solve any possible issues.
