Everyday life can be overwhelming full of obstacles and challenges. Sometimes we can feel trapped, helpless, or alone. These feelings and thoughts are natural, however if not properly managed they can lead to emotional disturbance and unhealthy behaviors. But we have the power to take control of our lives. With the help of guidance, insight and self-awareness, it can be done. I believe that we are all humans with the ability to love ourselves and make positive change. Let me help you adjust to life changes, improve your relationships, manage stress, cope with loss, and most importantly become more resilient.
I use a positive approach to therapy. I utilize my client's strengths and abilities to become empowered. I provide an empathetic, compassionate and nonjudgmental space for my clients to be accepted and feel safe. I integrate many tools of Psychotherapy including Person Centered Therapy, CBT, and Mindfulness to meet each individual's needs.
I see people for who they are, not their race, gender, economic status, or sexual orientation. Everyone is special, unique and has something to contribute to this world. I have experience in helping individuals adjust to life changes, help build healthy boundaries to enhance relationships and improve emotional intelligence.
