I am a cultivator and conduit for change. Change is not always an easy process, but most individuals seek therapy because they want something to change in their current life. I don't believe in disorders, I believe that there are behaviors that may not be allowing you to fully experience your life that need to be positioned correctly for you to move forward. I am just the guide to help you along your journey of change. It is hard work, but in the end, it will be worth your time and effort. I am skilled in trauma recovery and I can assist you with working through the most difficult situations and circumstances in your life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session we will get to know each other. One of the qualities that many of my clients like about me is that I am authentic and I am genuine, I mean what I say and I say what I mean. I operate in a judgment free zone, there is nothing that you can tell me that will shock or surprise me. I am open and honest and I want to provide a safe environment which in the end allows you to thrive.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength is my ability to help make connections based on very little information. There is often no need to be exhaustive in explanation with me. Some of my clients believe I am magical, well I am, but not because of anything other than my ability to listen and know what to listen for and how to assist in moving forward.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy
I meet you where you are and provide services specific to your culture, traditions, and beliefs. You are the driver of your therapy, so whatever makes you comfortable in this space, I am willing to meet you there.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a common practice among practitioners because it provides a foundation for change. Although it is not always specific to the person, it can be helpful in helping you to move forward.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Acceptance is a part of the tools necessary for change. It is necessary to accept where you are in life, where you are in the world, and who you are in order to change maladaptive patterns of behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
DBT is a beacon of movement that can assist you with recognizing what needs to be done and how to accomplish your goals.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I am just the guide or the sounding board. You are the owner and the driver of your treatment. I believe in the therapeutic relationship because I feel it is so important for you to be safe and feel safe in this environment.
