Life without a doubt, is complex. Days can be filled with various types of emotions and as a compassionate, experienced clinician, I can work with you to navigate those feelings, thoughts and sometimes negative patterns that can persist. I use a person-centered, strength based, and eclectic approach to address your individual needs. Having over 20 years of experience working with youth, adolescents, and adults with complex needs, I have addressed such matters of parent-child relation issues, blended family conflict, couples’ issues, interpersonal relationships, mood disorders, grief, youth sexual trauma, and more.
Being an Advance Trainer in the Nurtured Heart Approach, I have been able to integrate the approach to help build, strengthen, and restore interpersonal relationships that are a struggle. Being a solid partner in this therapeutic journey is fundamental. At South Collective Counseling, I help individuals develop healthy strategies for a balanced life.
Your journey is a priority and I offer a safe and supportive space where you can explore your experiences, feelings, and build meaningful relationships to ultimately live a fulfilling life. I aspire to make you feel seen and heard in a non-judgmental and compassionate way. Reach out when you’re ready and we will go at your pace.
