Hello there! Welcome! My professional path is driven by a profound dedication to inclusivity and social equity. I center my efforts on fostering mental well-being, providing essential coping skills, breaking down mental health stigma, and emphasizing the transformative and empowering nature of the healing process. In my practice, I adopt a compassionate and empathetic approach to create a secure and affirming space for clients. I guide them through their mental health challenges, helping them discover resilience on their unique journey towards healing. I firmly believe everyone should have a supportive environment to explore their challenges and embark on a personalized path to healing. I started my career as a clinician in community mental health, where I provided crucial support to individuals and families grappling with issues such as anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders. I have had the privilege of working with diverse clients, tailoring evidence-based modalities such as CBT, TF-CBT, and solution-focused therapy to meet their unique needs. In addition to individual therapy, I have facilitated groups for adolescents and adults centered on stress management, emotional regulation, and grief. I am committed to continuous learning and growth. I am excited to bring my passion and dedication to my practice, offering a compassionate and effective therapeutic experience to individuals seeking support and transformation.

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

In our first session, you can expect a warm and supportive environment where you feel safe to share your thoughts and feelings. We’ll start by discussing your current challenges, therapy goals, and any past experiences with therapy. I’ll also take time to understand your cultural background to ensure our approach is tailored to your needs. I’ll introduce the evidence-based methods I use, such as CBT, TF-CBT, or solution-focused therapy, and we’ll set some initial goals and outline a plan for our sessions. My focus will be on building a strong, collaborative relationship to support your journey toward healing and growth.

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

As a clinician, I believe my greatest strengths lie in my commitment to inclusivity and social equity, creating a supportive and affirming space that respects diverse cultural backgrounds and personal identities. I approach therapy with compassion and empathy, ensuring that clients feel heard and understood throughout their journey. My focus is on fostering mental well-being and building resilience, helping clients develop essential coping skills and overcome life’s challenges. I also strive to adapt my therapeutic approach to fit each client’s individual needs and am dedicated to continuous learning and professional growth, which allows me to provide the most effective and up-to-date support.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for the last 3 years, helping clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns. I utilize CBT techniques to empower clients to develop healthier coping strategies and make meaningful changes in their behaviors and emotions.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

My experience with ACT has entailed guiding clients to embrace their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling overwhelmed by them. I help clients focus on their values and commit to a meaningful life, using mindfulness and acceptance strategies to address psychological flexibility.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

My experience using DBT has focused on helping clients develop skills in mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. I work with clients to navigate intense emotions and build more stable, fulfilling lives through the application of DBT techniques.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy

I have experience providing culturally sensitive therapy, ensuring that my therapeutic approach respects and integrates clients' cultural backgrounds and values. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients feel understood and validated, allowing for more effective and meaningful therapeutic outcomes.
