High satisfaction rate with clients

Nice to meet you

I have experience in inpatient and outpatient settings. I implement client-centered approaches as I feel that your story and your perspective are important in the healing process. My background in Cultural Anthropology has afforded me the opportunity to have access to knowledge of diverse backgrounds, ethnicities, and lifestyles. My sessions usually include thought-provoking perspectives, clinical analysis, and real-life applications of several therapeutic modalities. I look forward to guiding you through your healing journey.
