About My Clients
Are you a college student struggling with the stress and anxiety of college life? A new parent who is feeling overwhelmed by the new responsibilities of raising a child? Someone struggling to adjust to a new culture or a new city, town, or country? These big life events can feel overwhelming, and I want to help you navigate them while building coping strategies to make you healthier and more confident in your abilities.
My Background and Approach
My approach to therapy is strengths-focused - I believe that everyone has strengths, and I want to empower you to recognize and utilize yours. In sessions, I like to highlight how you've been resilient in the past, what strengths you've used to help you get to where you are now, and how to capitalize on those strengths in the future. Prior to becoming a therapist, I spent eight years working on college campuses supporting college students from around the world and their families. While working with individuals from a broad range of countries and cultures, I recognized that everyone has strengths and everyone is resilient. In your sessions, we'll work together to uncover the heart of an issue and then develop strategies (using your strengths) to overcome these difficult moments. My goal is that you feel supported every step of the way and that we always move at your speed and with your goals in mind.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone should have access to therapy and a safe space to process their thoughts and emotions. While we all have had different life experiences, those experiences shape and mold how we act, what we believe, and who we are. As we better understand our life experiences, we can better understand our behaviors, change unwanted behaviors, and learn healthy behaviors. I know how scary it can be to ask for help and be vulnerable. I have been there, but I am so happy that I sought therapy for myself and have learned to know myself better. I want to share that sense of understanding and freedom with you as well. I have worked with individuals from all over the world, and I love connecting with people from different cultures and beliefs. I believe that human connection is what unifies all of us, and I would be honored to connect with you.
