Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, clients can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where we’ll begin building a strong therapeutic connection. I’ll gather information about your current concerns, personal history, and goals for therapy. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and get a feel for my style. Together, we’ll clarify what brought you to therapy and begin outlining a path forward that aligns with your needs and values. My priority is to ensure you feel seen, heard, and supported from the very beginning.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
One of my greatest strengths as a provider is my ability to hold space with both clinical precision and deep compassion. I bring a unique blend of psychological expertise, cultural humility, and real-world insight to my work. Clients often share that they feel genuinely seen and understood—especially those who have felt overlooked or misjudged in other settings. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practice, yet I tailor each session to honor the complexity of my clients’ lived experiences. I also integrate my background in leadership, consulting, and advocacy, which allows me to help clients not just cope, but rise—with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am best positioned to serve adolescents and adults who are navigating complex emotional, behavioral, or relational challenges. This includes individuals experiencing mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related symptoms, identity concerns, and difficulties with emotional regulation. I also specialize in working with high-achieving professionals, caregivers, and those from diverse cultural backgrounds who may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or disconnected. My approach is collaborative, affirming, and tailored to help clients regain clarity, build resilience, and lead more empowered lives.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in My Practice As a seasoned practitioner, I have extensive experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This evidence-based approach has been instrumental in helping my clients navigate a wide range of mental health challenges. My Experience with CBT Over the years, I've seen firsthand how CBT can empower individuals to take control of their thoughts and feelings. By identifying and challenging unhelpful thought patterns, my clients have been able to make significant strides towards improved mental well-being. How I Use CBT in My Practice In my practice, I use CBT as a collaborative tool. We work together to identify your unique patterns of thought and how they may be influencing your emotions and behaviors. This process is not about me telling you what to think or feel, but rather guiding you towards self-discovery and self-improvement. The Benefits of CBT CBT is a versatile therapy that can be tailored to meet your specific needs. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, or other mental health issues, CBT offers practical strategies that can help you cope more effectively. Why Choose My Practice? Choosing to work with me means choosing a compassionate, patient-centered approach. I am committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Together, we can work towards achieving your mental health goals.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and other therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are both popular types of psychotherapy that can help you release unhelpful thoughts and feelings. However, they differ in their techniques and philosophies. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) ACT increases psychological flexibility by using mindfulness and various behavior-changing strategies. The idea behind ACT is that our issues don’t only come from the painful experiences in our lives. Rather, much of our discomfort comes from struggling against the uncomfortable feelings and thoughts about these experiences. ACT shows you how to confront and accept your experiences, feelings, and thoughts, and stop overthinking and struggling against them.
Daialectical Behavior (DBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps clients manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and develop healthy coping skills. Originally designed for individuals with borderline personality disorder, DBT is also effective for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and emotion dysregulation. It combines mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness to promote balance and long-term well-being.
Eclectic
Eclectic Therapy is an approach that draws on multiple theoretical orientations and techniques. It's sometimes referred to as multi-modal or integrative therapy. Instead of adhering to a single style of treatment, Eclectic Therapy allows me to use the most effective methods available to address each individual client's needs. ## How I Use Eclectic Therapy in My Practice In my practice, I use Eclectic Therapy as a personalized tool. We work together to understand your specific needs and personal life. The eclectic therapy approach may involve using various theories of psychology and therapy techniques together, specialized to your particular circumstances. This process is not about me telling you what to think or feel, but rather guiding you towards self-discovery and self-improvement. ## Benefits of Eclectic Therapy Eclectic Therapy can have a number of important benefits. These include: - **Individualized Approach**: Because this approach to therapy is so adaptable, I can design a treatment plan that is suited to your specific, unique needs. - **Lowering Stress Levels**: It can help in lowering stress levels while improving moods without medication. - **Consolidating Insight**: It can consolidate insight gained through other therapeutic approaches. - **Creating Awareness**: It can create awareness around issues relating to all areas of life. - **Helping Clients Change Values and Behaviors**: It can help clients change values and behaviors in order to improve their personal situations. - **Helping Clients Find New Purpose in Life**: It can help clients find new purpose in life. ## Why Choose My Practice? Choosing to work with me means choosing a compassionate, patient-centered approach. I am committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Together, we can work towards achieving your mental health goals. If you're ready to take the next step towards better mental health, I invite you to reach out. Let's explore how Eclectic Therapy can make a positive impact on your life.
