You are of great value and have potential for resiliency and change, even if you feel too wounded, unworthy, or overwhelmed. Having someone to empathically hold your experiences and emotionally vulnerable or conflicted state while also facilitating the healing and growth you are capable of, is comforting and empowering. Allow me the privilege of partnering with you in developing and experiencing a practical, personally meaningful, trauma and culturally informed journey to improved mental-emotional health, wellness, and completeness.
As an integrative counselor and experienced occupational therapy healthcare provider, I will facilitate a rich and individualized approach that applies different theoretical frameworks and intervention strategies that will best meet your needs and goals, including holistic and spiritual wellness domains, as appropriate.
We can collaborate amidst diverse contexts-whether you are a trauma or disease survivor, mental health novice or veteran, in stagnation or transition, or someone who has lost self, a loved one, or a “dream.” Your unique feelings or perspectives as a young or senior adult, single or married, female or male, minority or majority individual will be valued.
