Therapy can be a healing and ultimately freeing journey. In my experience, it allows individuals at any age to get in touch with and learn to understand their feelings. In being able to better understand ourselves, we can better recognize not only what prevents us, but also, what allows us to have a more fulfilling life. There is no better feeling as a therapist than seeing your clients realize and embrace their inner strengths, humbling resilience, and acquire the tools to manage their struggles in healthier and more productive ways.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist - Supervisor with over 20 years experience working with children, teens, adults, and families managing life's struggles. I have extensive experience with clients struggling with mental health challenges, past and/or recent trauma, and in search for direction and positive change.
I provide an individualized, culturally conscious approach to treatment. Developing a strong therapeutic relationship is essential to promote internal healing, emotional growth, and enhance one's quality of life. I value the courage it takes to seek therapy and see myself as an ally in the journey to self-discovery and self-actualization.
