About My Clients

My ideal client is willing and ready to enter the therapeutic process, to learn about themselves and be brave enough to trust the process and embrace change. Open-minded, hopeful and desiring of better for themselves!

My Background and Approach

Living is hard, and in this fast-paced world, so is having someone to confide in who helps you grow and become resilient. Life is inherently fraught with difficulties as each stage presents us with obstacles and new experiences that mold us into the versions of ourselves that we become. Along the way, we are held down by patterns of our past and expectations that don't do us justice. It is here where therapy is beneficial. I strive to provide education via collaborative exploration and narrative, bringing into awareness what our minds keep tucked away but which keeps holding us back. I specialize in treating complex trauma and addressing issues of growth, with an emphasis on seeing oneself past one's diagnosis and troubles and seeing oneself in an integrated, humanistic way. I have trained in interpersonal and relational therapy, CBT, trauma, motivational interviewing and existential therapy. I have over seven years of experience working with individuals who have mood disorders, trauma

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe every human being has dignity and a right to a fulfilling, happy, and healthy life. I'm here to help you become the best version of yourself- to overcome problems and grow from them.
