Together, we will identify the root of your challenge and equip you with strategies to overcome what you are experiencing. We’ll use a holistic approach to address the needs of your mind, body, and spirit. I also integrate mindfulness to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you’re dealing with work stress, relationship issues, or anxiety and depression, I’m here to help, motivate, and encourage you! The decision to seek therapy can be difficult but is the first step in your healing journey. In our sessions, I’ll meet you with support, compassion, non-judgment, and evidence-based techniques to help you overcome what’s holding you back. Let’s get back to your happy place!

Get to know me

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

Getting to Know You: We'll start by discussing your background, your current challenges, and your goals for therapy. This helps me better understand your unique situation. Open Conversation: You can openly express what's on your mind. I'll listen actively and ask questions to gain insights into your experiences. Goal Setting: Together, we'll identify your therapeutic goals and what you hope to achieve through our work. Collaborative Approach: Therapy is a partnership. We'll discuss different approaches and strategies, ensuring that you're an active participant in your own healing journey. Next Steps: We'll outline a plan moving forward, whether that includes specific interventions, homework, or self-care practices. Support and Hope: You'll leave the session with a sense of support and hope. We'll work together to help you navigate your challenges and find solutions!

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I'm passionate about empowering and guiding my clients toward thriving in every aspect of life. The support you'll receive equips you with tools to manage stress, confront anxiety, overcome depression, and nurture healthy relationships. As my clients grow and evolve, they carry what they have learned into their workspaces, relationships, and personal endeavors.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

The clients I am best positioned to serve are women who feel overwhelmed and unfulfilled, despite having achieved success in various areas of their lives. These women often find themselves at a crossroads, struggling with work-related stress, anxiety, depression, and strained relationships—all of which are affecting their sense of self-worth, confidence, and overall well-being. They may have a successful career or a stable income, yet feel stuck in a cycle of burnout, self-doubt, and dissatisfaction. These clients are deeply aware of the toll their mental health struggles are taking on their personal and professional lives, and they are ready to invest in their growth, healing, and transformation.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

My experience with CBT spans years of working with clients just like you, helping them navigate challenges, manage stress, anxiety, depression, and improve their overall mental well-being. We will work together to identify and understand the negative thought patterns that might be contributing to your challenges. I will teach you ways to challenge these thoughts and explore new ways to approach these thoughts.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy

I recognize that each client's cultural background is unique. I tailor our therapy to address your specific needs and concerns within the context of your cultural identity.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

ACT emphasizes mindfulness and acceptance of your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I'll guide you in cultivating mindfulness skills to become more aware of the present moment and increase your emotional resilience.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-based therapy is effective in managing stress and anxiety. I'll teach you relaxation and meditation techniques that promote calm and reduce the impact of stressors. You'll learn to treat yourself with kindness and understanding, reducing self-criticism and enhancing self-esteem.

Psychodynamic

I'll help you build self-awareness and insight into your emotional patterns and the ways in which your past experiences shape your present. Understanding these dynamics is a crucial step toward personal growth.
