As a passionate advocate for mental well-being, I believe every individual has the potential to transform their lives through understanding, connection, and tailored therapeutic support. My approach to therapy is collaborative; together, we will seek to implement the best plan for your unique journey. Using various methods, like cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge negative thoughts, play therapy to express emotions, and attachment therapy to build healthy relationships, I am confident we can create a strategy that truly meets your needs. I strive to make every person feel safe, valued and understood.
Over the past decade, I have specialized in supporting children with disabilites in the public school system, gaining a deep understanding of behavioral and emotional challenges, autism spectrum disorders, and learning disabilities. My experience in women's health and wellness also enhances my ability to empathize and address the unique needs of women.
Feeling alone on your journey can be challenging, but you don't have to navigate it alone. A supportive therapeutic relationship can provide the connection and understanding you need. I invite you to take the courageous first step toward a fulfilling healing process. Remember, I am here for you, ready to listen and support you every step of the way.
