About My Clients

Are you struggling with unwanted emotions, behaviors, and beliefs, causing you to feel unhappy, unfulfilled, or anxious? Struggling to regulate your emotions in response to a traumatic event, a break-up, or problems in your current relationship? Time does not heal all wounds. It’s human to want to avoid and just get rid of the pain. At the same time, the way to resolve the pain is to give it your attention and work through it. This is the hardest part and doing it alone can be scary.

My Background and Approach

From a very early age, I realized we all have a different journey to walk through in this life. The dynamics within my home life while I was a child and adolescent were challenging and created a template of belief that life would be hard, impossible to live well, and that I had no control over what happened to me. Spirituality has always been very important to me and a primary reason for how I have overcome many hardships and challenges throughout my life. Also, through continuous education, new experiences, and my own healing process in mental health treatment, I learned to create the life I wanted instead of allowing what society said life would be like for me based on my beginnings. After working in the public mental health system for more than 10 years, I decided to start a private clinical practice where I can freely and creatively utilize my clinical skills to help my clients reconnect with the healing source within and learn to live their life as the best version of themselves.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe Therapy is a gift to you and your loved ones who get to experience the best version you. We cannot heal emotional distress through distancing ourselves from it. I am here to support and guide you in your process of facing emotional pain from your past or present so that you can connect with the healing source within and exerperience emotional peace. I truly believe in the importance of healing past wounds so that they are not holding power over you, draining your life of energy and peace. We were designed by our Creator to thrive, experience joy, and live to our full potential, but somehow different circumstances in life cast shadows over our brilliance. I am here to support you in your healing journey so that you can be your best, and love the life you are living. If you'd like to discuss things further, please text, email, or call.
