I enjoy working with high-functioning, insight-oriented adults, couples, and families from diverse, multicultural backgrounds. My ideal client is struggling with identity issues, low self-esteem, childhood trauma, anxiety/depression, etc. They need a place to process and explore their thoughts and feelings and learn new skills and tools to change their thinking and behavior. Their goals include figuring out the problem, why it is occurring, and how to fix and change it together. My ideal client is motivated, insightful, and expressive. They desire to be in therapy and do the work that therapy requires.
My clients learn coping skills, deepen insight, and gain new skills and tools that help them change, recover, and manage their symptoms more effectively. My specialty is empathy, a humanistic/relational approach, and respect for clients' cultural wisdom in the therapeutic experience. I'm a good listener and know how to make people feel seen and understood.
I encourage you to reach out to me to schedule an initial session. Overall, you will feel validated, affirmed, and empowered when working with me, which, in turn, will help promote growth and healing in your life. I look forward to going on the therapeutic journey with you and hearing from you soon!
