About My Clients

Each individual and couple bring a unique experience and cultural awareness that are honored and explored in the process of therapy. Many clients experience a wide range of depression, anxiety, trauma, socialization and interpersonal relationship challenges, and impostor syndrome. Clients seek coping skills that can function to minimize or alleviate symptoms experienced in many areas of their function. The goal is to "pick yourself up before you fall."

My Background and Approach

With almost 20 years of working in various roles within the mental health field, I understand from an academic and practical view of the impact of mental challenges on daily functioning. My approaches are built on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, and Positive Psychology. The mind, body and spirit play integral roles in wholeness and wellness; therefore, a holistic approach is often applied.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Ascend to the summit of wholeness. We embody our barriers and abilities to breakdown (sometimes) self-imposed walls. As James Baldwin penned, “Not everything that is faced can be changed; but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” Let's work together to eliminate or diminish the impact of depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, and impostor syndrome on your life's journey. You can create a new and better present and future.
