My Approach & Philosophy

  • My approach is to provide my clients with an interactive, warm and accepting environment. 
  • Therapy is a journey, and healing comes in my stages, and I am happy to meet you where you are in your journey.
  •  By developing a relationship with a caring therapist, you will find new ways to solve problems and begin the healing process.
  • A strengths-based approach is the one approach that I firmly believe in, as I enjoy helping others recognize their strengths.
  • I specialize in anxiety, depression, grief/loss, family separation, and trauma.
  • One of the ways that I like to build relationships is through empathy, dignity, and respect.
  • I offer non-judgmental approaches and want the client to feel as comfortable as possible.
  • I am creative and upbeat and bring my whole self to every session.
