Are you searching for a more meaningful life with purpose, love, and acceptance? Most of us experience events that become roadblocks to having a fulfilled life. My clients find relief, growth, and healing when we work together with tenderness and courage to better understand and move through those roadblocks. I am here to help you discover your voice, feel connected, heard, seen, and understood. "Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom"- Victor Frankl
I have special interest supporting clients experiencing trauma, medical diagnosis, and challenges of caregiving along with identity development and relationship issues. I am Internal Family System (IFS) level 1 trained, and I utilize integrated style of therapy based on client/person centered, IFS, and existential through trauma focused lens.
I bring my own life experience to the counseling sessions as an immigrant and bilingual minority married woman with children. Throughout my life, I have learned to be resilient and face hardships with bravery and acceptance, but I didn't do it alone and neither should you. I look forward to the privilege of supporting you toward your joyous, purposeful life!
