As a licensed psychotherapist with a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Vanguard University, I possess the training and expertise necessary to guide you through difficult times and help you discover your authentic self. My passion for mental health was fueled by a profound desire to assist others in leading satisfying lives and achieving their highest potential. Earning my Master's degree in Clinical Psychology provided me with the essential knowledge and skills to effect positive change. Between 2009 and 2020, I completed the requisite clinical hours for licensure, acquiring extensive experience in aiding clients from various backgrounds. My therapeutic approach is centered on imparting tools and techniques to cope with anxiety and depression, foster positive transformations, and uncover the happiness you seek in life. I utilize methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based strategies, Solution-Focused techniques, and Positive Psychology to customize treatment to meet your specific needs.

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

In our initial session, we will explore the reasons you've sought therapy and work together to set your treatment objectives. I will collect pertinent background details and address any inquiries you might have regarding the therapy journey. We will jointly foster a secure and encouraging space that allows you to comfortably share your story and strive for meaningful progress..

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

Expect me to be an empathetic, non-judgmental listener, creating a safe space for you to share your thoughts and feelings openly. I adopt a collaborative approach, working with you to identify your goals and craft a personalized treatment plan. My communication style is warm and direct, aimed at helping you acquire valuable insights and practical strategies.
