Hi! I’m a graduate of Barry University with my license in Mental Health Counseling. I specialize in trauma, grief, and self-esteem. I offer individual, family, and marriage and couples therapy to families. It’s ok to feel stuck. We all dwell on our mistakes and difficulties. But it’s important to draw a line, beyond which we stop dwelling and begin acting to improve our emotional, mental, and physical health. The goal of each session is created, collaboratively, so you have say on how you want your sessions to go. This space is your space that you create so you feel comfortable doing the work. Looking forward to working with you!
As your therapist, my primary goal is to support you when you feel stuck and encourage your progress to a healthier mindset. It can be overwhelming to speak with someone about the most vulnerable moments of your life. I specialize in a person-centered approach that focuses on your strengths and the ways you want to grow.
I use therapeutic approaches, such as; Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy and I believe the best approach focuses on person-centered language where the person comes before the situation. Part, if not all, of my approach starts with who you are as a person. Everyone has challenges and things they go through. Sometimes we attach those challenges to our identity and who we are instead of an action we did. Regardless of the situation or challenge you want to process, the therapeutic space first addresses you; as a person.
My biggest strength as a therapist revolves around letting you design the space so you feel comfortable to talk and process. Whether you're dealing with self-esteem, grief, trauma, or feeling overwhelmed, I'm here to help. I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques, and relatable conversation so you can work towards your goals.
