Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

My first session is designed to build a strong therapeutic alliance. I work on making my clients feel welcomed and at ease, the next step is setting the ground work; clarifying expectations, setting goals, discussing treatment plan is all part of this session as well. Gathering information is also a big part of this session, I open up the session for clients and empower them to share as much as they are comfortable with. Sharing feelings and emotions is highly encouraged.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My training as a social worker and years of experience have ingrained in me the importance of staying non- judgmental in my practice. I heavily rely on my ability to listen, understand and stay genuine in every session. If a certain topic is out of my area of expertise I do not hesitate to inform and discuss with my client. I believe empathy, authenticity and strong communication skills also help me be a better professional. My approach to therapy is to keep it simple and collaborative. I use a mix of many modalities and make every effort to tailor the treatment plan based on client's needs.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I find myself excited to work with clients who are motivated to usher change in their lives. Therapy needs patience, ability to introspect and analyze; I enjoy and feel challenged when I work with clients who are interested in dabbling into these areas. I encourage open honest conversation and welcome critical feedback to advance therapeutic alliance. I work well with adult clients who are experiencing anxiety, lack of motivation, low self esteem, life transitions, grief, family conflicts and relationship problems. I stress on compatibility and believe that best results can be achieved if both parties involved are compatible and clear with their expectations.
