My role is not to “Save the world” or “Empower” my clients. I believe together my clients and I can work alongside to reach their goals. I became a mental health provider because our mental health shapes and forms other aspects of our lives. Mental Health is vital! I have been a Doctor of Social Work; and Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2019, and I have experience supporting children, adolescents/young adults, and adults with concerns such as trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, marital counseling, anger management, acute inpatient, partial hospitalization. I don’t believe as a therapist my role is to “Save the world” or “Empower” my clients. I believe together my clients and I can work alongside each other to assist them with identifying tools within themselves and community resources to successfully reach their goals. Outside of my professional life, I spending time with my NEW Siberian Husky puppy, I enjoy home decor , cooking and spending quality time with family. The types of therapy I offer include and are not limited to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Culturally Sensitive, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Multicultural, Person-Centered, Solution-Focused Therapy.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My ability to build rapport with clients from all walks of life while creating a safe space makes me unique! I don’t believe as a therapist my role is to “Save the world” or “Empower” my clients. I believe together my clients and I can work alongside each other to assist them with identifying tools within themselves and community resources to successfully reach their goals. I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

"It all starts with the mind!" CBT is the basics. With this treatment method I assist clients with identifying and replacing their negative thoughts, beliefs. Next, we tap into other modalities to assist with establishing the long-term and short-term outcomes client's want to achieve.

Trauma Informed Care

Being a Trauma-Informed Care therapist I understand and consider the pervasive nature of trauma and promote environments of healing and recovery rather than practices and services that may inadvertently re-traumatize my clients.

Motivational Interviewing

Through Motivational interviewing I assist clients with resolving ambivalent feelings and insecurities to find the internal motivation they need to change their behavior. It is a practical, empathetic, and short-term process that takes into consideration how difficult it is to make life changes.
