About My Clients
I welcome any client into my office with confidence, believing that honesty, collaboration, & hard work lead to change. Clients who thrive are those willing to be uncomfortable and honest, as growth requires breaking old patterns & forming new habits. I have experience with individuals, couples, & families from diverse backgrounds, including those transitioning from incarceration, facing addiction, domestic violence, & trauma, as well as at-risk teens experiencing suicidal ideation & self-harm.
My Background and Approach
I approach therapy through an integrative, evidence-based lens, blending cognitive-behavioral, narrative, emotionally focused, family systems, and strength-based interventions. My work explores how family patterns, social experiences, and cultural influences shape your relationships and internal world. With a compassionate, honest approach, I aim to help you understand and express your emotions healthily, offering practical tools for growth. I identify and challenge dysfunctional beliefs that impact how you relate to others and yourself, tracing their origins and helping you rewrite them. My goal is to deepen your self-understanding, foster self-compassion, and empower you to make meaningful changes in your life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe my role as a therapist is to balance challenge and encouragement, empowering clients to drive their own growth and change. My practice is grounded in the belief that everyone deserves kindness and empathy, regardless of their circumstances or choices. I strive to create a safe space for authenticity, where clients can face their emotional complexities with courage. Having experienced the profound impact of therapy in my own life, I understand the value of confronting discomfort with compassionate support. My personal journey has shown me how essential this work is, and I am dedicated to being that supportive presence for others, knowing firsthand how it can transform lives.
