I am convinced that therapeutic and mental health services can be advantageous for anyone at any stage of life. No concern is too small, especially when it starts to interfere with your daily activities. In the therapeutic setting, my goal is to establish an empathetic and non-judgmental space that encourages openness and vulnerability as shared elements of our collaborative process. The guiding philosophy is that you, the client, are always the leader of our combined endeavors. If any strategy does not satisfy your needs, I invite you to communicate this so that I can adjust and identify the most beneficial approach for you.
My expertise encompasses supporting individuals within the LGBTQIA2S+ community and assisting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
To schedule an initial intake, kindly contact the phone number provided on my profile. I am eager to meet you and collaborate to discover the most effective approach for your needs.

I collaborate with many individuals who have endured different forms of trauma during childhood and adulthood. This often results in sessions that may appear unusually structured, as extra flexibility and time are sometimes necessary to tackle challenging and sensitive subjects. My aim is to consistently harmonize past traumas with present circumstances, aiming to cover a broader spectrum

My approach is to remain as adaptable as possible to meet the distinct needs of each person.
