An affirmative approach combining techniques like CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, body-mind connection, existential, humanistic, and multicultural approaches upon others curated to your needs, but most importantly to create a space where you feel seen and heard.
Acknowledging and normalizing our human diversity, sexual and gender expressions that have been part of life through history. Transforming the old thinking of shaming that judges bodies for their uniqueness. I am continually learning and educating myself to keep my knowledge current and connected to the changes in life, generations, environments, and culture. My commitment to providing optimal care is creating a safe, welcoming, non-judgmental space where each person has the freedom to be him/her/themselves as a transformative empowerment journey with the secure support of an ally.

My therapeutic approach is holistic and rooted in an existential/ humanistic perspective.
You deserve to live a life that feels conscious and joyful. I believe in the power of therapy to help you find clarity, meaning and fulfillment on your own terms. Together, we will work to gain profound insight into your inner world—managing self-limiting beliefs, behaviors and relational patterns in the process. It is my role and honor to walk by your side in the transformative process of deepening your connection with your most authentic and self-aware self. I work primarily with clients struggling with relationships, anxiety, limerence, spiritual distress and life-cycle transitions.

Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, we will work together to help you reach a deeper understanding of yourself and harness your inner strengths and resilience to face life's challenges and unknowns.

As a counselor based in humanistic and relational cultural theory, I believe you are the person who knows yourself best. Throughout life, circumstances leading to disruptions in well-being can produce self-doubt, a negative view of self, and low self-worth. Even through these times, each person still has autonomy and the ability to make effective decisions that fit in accordance with their lives. One of my goals is to expand self-awareness so you can live in a more purposeful way that aligns with your values.

My hope is to assist you in cultivating a deeper understanding of your own intrapsychic road map and emotional terrain. I am a firm believer that every session should give you a piece of your own puzzle and over time help you gain the skills to navigate your own thoughts, control your behavioral and emotional responses, and understand your relationship patterns and conflicts.

Humanistic Therapists
How does humanistic therapy work?
One tenet of humanistic therapy is that people are good. The humanistic approach is concerned with a person’s ability to accept oneself. It likewise encourages a person to overcome self-criticism and self-defeating tendencies, as well as disapproval from others. This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.
Is humanistic therapy evidence-based?
Humanistic therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has found that humanistic therapy can lead to significant improvement, and for some people it can be just as effective as other therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of humanistic therapy are enduring.
How long does humanistic therapy last?
The goal of humanistic therapy is to understand a person’s day-to-day experiences. While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more. And because patients learn the theory behind humanistic therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is humanistic therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with humanistic therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in addressing poor self-esteem and self-sabotage, as well as improving conditions including anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can be long standing, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve learned during treatment.
