Drawing on my background in art, I incorporate creative methods into the therapeutic process, which significantly aids in emotional healing and personal growth. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding and respecting the diverse cultural backgrounds of my clients. This cultural competence allows me to connect authentically and effectively with individuals, couples, families, and young adults from various cultural contexts. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where clients feel valued and understood. Through my extensive experience, I have developed a versatile and adaptable therapeutic style, enabling me to address a wide range of issues and meet the unique needs of each client. My commitment to confidentiality and sensitivity ensures that clients can trust me with their most personal concerns, fostering a strong therapeutic alliance. Overall, my goal is to empower clients to achieve their fullest potential, fostering growth and well-being across diverse populations. Whether through in-person or virtual sessions, my comprehensive and empathetic approach aims to support clients in their journey toward healthier, more fulfilling lives.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

By integrating CBT into my practice, I help clients develop healthier thought patterns and behaviors, leading to improved emotional well-being and a better quality of life.

Strength-Based

By integrating Strength-Based Therapy into my practice, I help clients recognize their inherent strengths and use them to overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and improve their overall well-being. This approach fosters a sense of empowerment, resilience, and self-efficacy, enabling clients to lead more fulfilling and balanced lives.

Couples Counseling

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have extensive experience working with both couples and individuals to enhance their relationships and address various challenges. I believe that individual therapy is just as important as couples therapy, since everyone is interconnected with others. My integrative approach allows me to draw from different therapeutic models to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs, whether they are seeking help as an individual or as part of a couple.
