Are you seeking positive change in your life? I am a counselor working under supervision who is passionate about supporting individuals as they navigate challenges and obstacles that arise in their lives. Through a journey of self-acceptance and self-awareness we will collaborate together to take action-oriented steps towards your personal goals in a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment.
I work with clients from diverse backgrounds and emphasize cultural awareness within sessions. I have experience working with adolescents and early-stage adults. It is my belief that when equipped with the necessary tools, many individuals are capable of overcoming challenges or obstacles that arise over the course of their lives.
My therapeutic approach to action-oriented counseling encompasses cognitive behavioral, acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), strengths-based, and person-centered therapy with a focus on motivational interviewing among others based on the needs of the client to address issues such as depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, and life challenges.
