I approach therapy as a collaborator. My method is client-centered and humanistic. I aim to accompany my clients in achieving the goals brought into the therapeutic environment with openness, empathy, and compassion. Creating goals in small steps is vital for progress and change. Identifying dysfunctional patterns and processing trauma will create lasting changes. My clients can learn to recognize unhealthy cycles and learn more in-depth about their attachment styles. I have a BA in psychology and a minor in child and adolescent development. My master's is in MFT.
I have worked with the ASD population since 2018. I am allied through sex-positivity with the LGBTQIA plus and sex workers communities. I specialize in working with alternative lifestyles, subcultures, and transgender communities with the ability to engage from a multicultural lens. I predominantly serve young adults, adults, and elderly individuals.
Ultimately, the connection and comfort between the therapist and the client are essential in providing the best atmosphere for individuals to succeed. I am enthusiastic about collaborating with and empowering my clients. We work as a team to create a healthier future with positive development and growth.
