About My Clients

My clients are driven and dedicated to making changes in their lives. I love assisting them by providing a safe, holding environment, including much-needed tools and techniques to feel empowered, reintegrate all aspects of themselves, reach their potential, and eventually stop coming to therapy.

My Background and Approach

I highly value your time and money, and the goal is to be as structured and goal-oriented as possible. Aside from employing strengths-based, trauma-informed, modalities, I also specialized in focusing on systems theory, which takes an comprehensive approach to explore the framework of the occurring concerns or problems. I assist individuals in investigating the underlying forces of all relationships in their lives, including relationships with the family of origin, intimate relationships, friendships, social status, and most significantly, the existing relationship within the clients themselves.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we humans come in layers. Each of those layers is in constant interaction with one another, never leaving us, and influencing our minds, thoughts, decisions, and behaviors. Each layer represents our lived experiences and also how their continuous impact can shape the way we see ourselves, others, and our world. The process can be challenging and mind-perplexing—but one that can be an extraordinarily reintegrative and rewarding journey of acceptance, empowerment, openness, and compassion for ourselves and others.
