My first session is a rapport-building session. We will take this time to get to know each other and discover if we are a match for one another. I encourage my clients to ask questions and get to know me as I will be doing the same. The first session is meant to be fun and care-free.
As a dedicated psychotherapist, my expertise spans a wide range of demographics, including children, adolescents, adults, and geriatrics. My extensive experience in child welfare, criminal justice, and acute hospital settings has equipped me with a unique perspective on the myriad challenges individuals face throughout their lives. I approach each session with unwavering empathy, poised to illuminate paths toward healing and personal growth. My dynamic approach is not just about therapy; it’s about empowering individuals to reclaim their narratives and thrive. I am dedicated to creating a safe, all-inclusive space for individuals to explore their innermost thoughts and emotions, empowering them to navigate life's challenges with resilience and grace.
