Sometimes, transformations and changes are the steppingstones that allow you to realize your full potential. Taking the time to reflect and to gain a better perspective on its own life path helps to shed a light on what makes you unique. This insight makes it easier for you to be aware of your strengths and your limits, and you become better equipped to achieve your personal goals.

My therapeutic and corrective approach is, Solution Focused and Client-Centered, drawn from my experience in Narrative and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Healing and recovery begin with acceptance. Choosing peace over chaos. Life often takes unpredictable turns and no one is immune from adversities. Despite our best efforts, we often need a ladder or a bridge to assist us to connect, reconnect, recover, discover, to achieve self-actualization and empowerment. I recognize that Everyone is unique, every situation is exceptional and there is no one size fits all solution. I provide a safe space within which you may initiate your self-actualization and empowerment. Together, we foster hope and develop the expectation of change, within a sphere of hope, motivation and determination.

Life's journey often presents us with challenges that can feel overwhelming and persistent. Just as the tide shapes the shoreline, our experiences with trauma, relationships, anxiety, depression, grief, and chronic illness can reshape our sense of self and well-being.
