Are you ready to take control of your mental health and unlock your full potential? As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am here to help. With over a decade of experience working in the mental health field and with a Doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy, I am deeply committed to empowering individuals to thrive through a holistic and humanistic approach to mental health care. My practice goes beyond symptom management, emphasizing the importance of building self-awareness, insight, and resilience. I provide practical tools and techniques to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other challenges, while also encouraging clients to deepen their understanding of themselves and their relationship with the world around them. My approach is tailored to the unique needs of each client, creating a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative space to explore the issues that are most pressing. Through our work together, we can uncover the root causes of your struggles, address any limiting beliefs, and unlock your full potential for growth and self-actualization. I specialize in working with individuals who are seeking to improve their mental health and well-being, navigate major life transitions, or develop a deeper sense of purpose and meaning in their lives. I am excited to accompany you on your journey towards greater self-awareness, insight, and fulfillment. Together, we can work towards taking control of your mental health and discover the full extent of your potential.

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

In sessions, you can expect a safe, empathetic, and collaborative space to explore your concerns. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship that fosters trust and mutual respect, allowing you to feel heard and validated. You will be encouraged to engage in a process of self-exploration and personal growth. I will help you tap into your inner resources and strengths. You will learn to identify and understand your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, empowering you to make more intentional and fulfilling life choices. Ultimately, you can expect to leave our sessions feeling more empowered, with a greater sense of self-awareness, and with the tools and insights needed to navigate life’s challenges with greater ease and resilience.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I utilize evidence-based treatment methods to help clients achieve their goals, while also recognizing and addressing the impact of cultural factors. I draw upon a range of treatment approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, humanistic-existential therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, to tailor my approach to each client’s unique needs and circumstances. I employ various assessment tools, such as psychological tests and diagnostic interviews to gain a deeper understanding of an individual’s struggles. My approach is client-centered, meaning that I work collaboratively with clients to identify their unique needs, goals, and values. I aim to create a warm, non-judgmental, and supportive environment to help clients develop skills, insights, and resilience.

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

My biggest strength lies in creating a safe and supportive environment for my clients. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in promoting positive change, and my goal is to establish a strong and trusting rapport with each client that I work with. I prioritize the needs and goals of my clients, and I work collaboratively with them to develop a treatment plan that is tailored to their unique circumstances. In addition, I also bring expertise in a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities. I believe that a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy is not effective, and so I draw from a range of techniques to create a treatment plan that is tailored to each client's specific needs.
