About My Clients
I help my clients develop coping skills and self-confidence in order to feel empowered to do what they hope to achieve whether it be accomplishing a goal or overcoming a fear that has been holding them back from completing their personal, social or professional goals and dreams. You as the client deserve all the positives the world has to offer, let's help you achieve that dream you think it is impossible to get to.
My Background and Approach
I have clinical experience working various therapeutic settings including inpatient level of care, residential programs/groups homes, foster care and permanency planning with latency age clients and young youth. I currently work in forensic psychology with Clients impacted by the justice system. I specialize in trauma based disorders (PTSD), anxiety and depression. I use an integrated therapeutic approach including trauma-informed, solution-focused, and mindfulness interventions. I welcome all individuals from diverse backgrounds.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe clients come to therapy to better understand themselves and their relationships , I emphasize that therapy is not always a linear process and I meet the client where they are and help them work towards their hopes of where they want to be. I believe that when motivated clients are able to unlearn unhealthy behavioral patterns that may impact their anxiety and/or depression that may be driven by traumatic experiences throughout their lives. Learning to live in the uncomfortable is difficult but rewarding because clients learn more about themselves and what they are truly capable of. I do not discriminate against race, gender, religion, or sexuality. I offer a safe, non-judgemental, culturally sensitive and caring therapeutic space for my clients.
