Some of us are surviving through life, but are we really living? Life comes with many challenges and obstacles that can impact our mental health and overall well-being. While taking that initiative in seeking counseling can be overwhelming and scary, it is the first step to your journey of healing and that shows strength. Creating a safe space for you to express yourself is of upmost importance to me and I do so by demonstrating genuine empathy and establishing trust in the work I do with clients. I aim to facilitate growth and empowerment by taking a collaborative approach with clients as we go through the therapeutic process.

Taking the first step towards your mental health enrichment can be intimidating. Part of my initial work with my clients is to discuss any mental health stigmas or fears that may be challenging for them as they begin their mental health journey. My focus is to work with you in creating a personalized treatment with goals that reflect your uniqueness.

In life, everyone encounters difficulties and I believe it is an act of courage to recognize when help is needed. My approach to providing psychological services involves a collaborative relationship with my client so that together we can come up with strenghts-based solutions to the difficulties they are experiencing. I rely on evidence-based practices, primarily from a cognitive-behavioral perspective but I am able to incorporate other types of interventions as needed by my client. I believe all clients can benefit from a compassionate listener who can help them process and also reframe difficulties experienced.

COUNSELING. What does it mean when we hear that word? To some its intimidation, fear, broken, and some may even think judgment. All of those definitions could not be further from the truth. We all have times in life when we need to clarify our perspective on life's challenges and opportunities. Counseling is an avenue to provide encouragement and assistance to those facing various life challenges. Sometimes we are unable to conquer serious challenges alone. I am able to provide the help and support needed to achieve that next level.
