I am a strength-based therapist dedicated to helping individuals through their difficult struggles, hardships, or any circumstances where they want to improve on some life goals. I aim at assisting individuals to learn how to complete their therapeutic work in a safe, calm, and authentic environment. Everyone needs a genuine person that will encourage, believe, and support them through all aspects of life, and to build on their strengths for personal growth.
My specialties include Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Substance Use, PTSD, Behavioral Issues, Mood Disorders, Relationship Issues, Life Transitions. I use an integrated approach with various techniques/strategies to include Person Centered, Solution-focused, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Psychoanalytic, Humanistic, Narrative Approaches along with Mindfulness.
