Life can become complicated to handle when we experience loss, abrupt changes, trauma or conflict with family and friends. If you’ve experienced events that have led to an increase in worry/fear, caused your esteem to plummet, or you find it difficult to manage feelings of sadness or irritability, then therapy can be a great step towards transformative healing. Perhaps you’re looking for a culturally-responsive therapist for yourself or your teen who understands the connection between the changes in one’s mood and the challenge of navigating various (and sometimes oppressive) social and family contexts.
I use an integrative approach to therapy that helps you build insight into negative thinking patterns, discover a path to your whole and authentic self in relationships, and examine the role of family, social, and cultural experiences that have influenced your life so that you can feel empowered to respond to your needs effectively.
My work with clients is a deeply humbling experience, as I’m aware your decision to seek support communicates courage and trust. I value your decision to prioritize yourself and will work with you to meet your goals at your own pace. I look forward to creating the safe space that you need for yourself/your teen to work toward the change you aspire to see.
