About My Clients

I have over eight years of experience in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, parenting conflicts, career and life changes, physical and emotional trauma, ADHD and aggression. My approach to therapy combines different treatment modalities; cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, compassion focused therapy and mindfulness- based cognitive therapy. I understand that everyone is unique and I will tailor our time and goals to fit your specific needs.

My Background and Approach

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and steer away from stigmatizing labels. I believe in open communication, empathetic listening and making therapy a judgement free zone. I love to empower and provide the tools you need to succeed and create a satisfying life. By placing special importance on being creative and fun when working with my younger clients I ensure both your child as well as your entire family have a positive experience of growth.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I pride myself in creating a supportive and caring environment where my patients could feel understood and at ease. I believe that every person has the ability to be a healthier version of themselves and I feel honored to help you on your journey.
