I see therapy as the process in which an individual experiences the ability to reflect and, most importantly, reach true potential. Life can bring much joy but also pain, and my goal is to provide clients the space to feel safe, heard, seen, and validated. I utilize client-centered therapy to build an alliance with clients and solution-focused therapy to reach each client's goal.

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.

Having worked over a decade with clients from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, I've developed a toolbox that is enriched by a variety of experiences and strategies to support each individual's needs. I also strongly believe in building a therapeutic relationship with the client early on to build trust and an alliance to support the individual's outcome.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Oftentimes, clients seek short-term, goal-oriented therapy approaches that provide guidance and together create desirable outcomes.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Clients who struggle with anxiety and depression benefit from recognizing one's distortions in thinking that lead to barriers. Gaining a better understanding of the connection between thought's and behavior can led to increases self-awareness. In addition, to gaining coping skills to manage.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy

It's critical to acknowledged backgrounds and belief system as related to race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and other components that makes someone identify and culture. By doing so I maintain culturally sensitivity to best support the client.

Family Therapy

Support family by build stronger relationships, improve communication and manage conflict.
