High satisfaction rate with clients

Nice to meet you

I have extensive experience working with individuals and families in a wide array of settings; from community-based settings to hospitals, and outpatient clinics. Showing up for therapy takes courage and vulnerability. I take a Strengths-Based, collaborative, and culturally-humble approach to my therapeutic process. Together we will uncover your innate resilience and resolve. We will establish realistic goals and an individualized road map to reach them. I am committed to taking a holistic view of the human person; a perspective that includes one’s environment, influencing systems, culture, values, history, and beliefs. Empowering each individual that seeks therapy is my goal and you can expect a warm and empathic therapeutic style as we take this journey together. I have a passion for accompanying others as they discover those tools that help them to live as their whole, authentic selves. As your partnering therapist, I commit to being in your corner, offering a variety of methodologies to choose from including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Mindfulness Based Therapies, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
