Over 20 years of clinical experience working with adolescents, teenagers, and young adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and addiction in various treatment settings. Diversity and multicultural issues are embedded in everything we do and contribute to presenting problems. I am conscious of varying decision-making preferences, the role of family dynamics, stages of life, socioeconomic status, and issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity. As well as the stigma associated with seeking mental health services.

The key to making changes in your life begins with awareness. Sometimes sorting out what is causing negative emotions, thoughts and behaviors can be challenging on your own. The counseling processes can help you achieve insight into your problems and help you develop the necessary skills to make meaningful change. My goal as your therapist is to bring out the inner strengths you already possess and help you apply them in your everyday life. I believe that the therapeutic process is a collaborative one, and I am dedicated to working alongside you to reach your goals.

Managing negative thoughts can be a challenging journey, even for the strongest individuals. It’s essential to remember that negative thoughts can lead to addiction which is a disease of the brain, not a moral failing. You are not a bad or flawed person. Like other chronic diseases, addiction, anxiety and depression require ongoing care to manage. Recovery is a lifelong commitment that won’t always be easy, but it's possible because problems have solutions.
