About My Clients

I work with a variety of clients to navigate challenges, foster self-growth, and develop new insights into life. Active listening will be a big part of our work together, and I am a good listener. I care about your most presenting concern and the work continues when we tackle our first challenge. I am here to guide your learning in emotional growth and help you become an independent learner of your needs.

My Background and Approach

My current approach is eclectic and my main orientation includes psychoanalysis, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and social justice. I also use solution-focused techniques for short-term changes.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that therapy serves a similar function as education: it nurtures abilities, raises self-awareness, and maintains the connection with human nature. We may all have been in school for education and career goals (and for a really long time), but how much do we learn in school about our emotions and feelings? Therefore, I aim to provide an experience that brings out curiosity inwards and outwards.
