My clinical practice focuses primarily on young adults, adults and the elderly. I am passionate about guiding clients to their baseline and beyond using a variety of expressive and experiential therapeutic interventions that are all aimed at emotional and mental health wellbeing. The therapeutic setting is confidential. I know the importance of feeling understood and accepted. I focus on your strengths and needs, providing support and interventions that address the thinking process and emotional expression.
While able to treat a wide variety of diagnosis, my clinical experience includes working with complex trauma/PTSD, severely mentally ill, mood disorders, substance abuse, self-esteem, sexual assault and childhood abuse victims, LGBTQI issue and more. I can assist you in seeking clarity of life circumstances and work through complex situations.
Let me help you brighten your vision!
