About My Clients

I can work with anyone who is desirous of change and willing to work with my skills in holistic health perspectives relative to mental health. With a master's in mental health counseling and extensive training in many psychotherapies, I can help you with your darkest days of depression, terror of PTSD and anxiety as well as those who have suffered Adverse Childhood Experiences and the effects of ethnic marginalization and racism in either direction. Challenges like big grief and divorce also.

My Background and Approach

CBT, Narrative therapy, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, Solutions Focused therapy, Humanistic therapies and others.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am known for my integrity because I have core values that were with me since childhood and reinforced through my life experiences. I believe in the teachings of Christ according to my understanding of the Bible which is simple yet requires constant vigilance to sustain. This is to love others as one loves oneself and to love God above all. Just that alone informs me to be respectful of others, be non judgmental of others and be forgiving towards other and most importantly to LOVE since all aforementioned acts can not be true without Love. I'm not perfect, but I try real hard. I love being myself and I express myself through music, art and whatever form my creativity manifests. I love being a therapist as I could never have a better job than helping people. As such, I am a staunch advocate for my clients or anyone that is oppressed, marginalized or abused. An LGBTQ alley and also of the underrepresented, disparaged and disempowered people.
