About My Clients

I've worked in non-profits, schools, and hospitals with teenage mothers, youth and young adults in foster care, at-risk students, adults learning English as a second language, adoption families, homeless individuals, and patients with mental and medical health diagnoses. I have experience leading clients through depression, anxiety, LGBTQ+ issues, PTSD, transitioning to adulthood, and chronic pain.

My Background and Approach

I address issues and barriers using an eclectic mix of therapy techniques, including the Strengths Perspective, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and a Person-Centered Approach. I pride myself on providing a safe and supportive space to work side by side to overcome traumas, stressors, and barriers, and I am fully committed to actively listening and offering my best professional practices. Thank you for taking the first step and for allowing me to be part of this very important journey.
