I have been a practicing therapist for over 8 years, mainly working in community mental health. I have experience working with adults with a wide variety of mental health and social challenges like managing stress, improving emotional regulation, navigating life transitions, cultural related issues, relationships, learning to create and maintain a healthy work/life balance, anxiety, depression, and more.
As a person-centered and strengths-based therapist, I believe that every client is an expert on themselves and they already possess the internal resources they need. I'm just here to help guide them to their own answers and to teach them how to put those internal tools to work.
When starting with a client, i like to give them space to tell me their story, why they have made the brave choice to enter into therapy, and what they are looking to gain from it. I create a safe and open environment to allow clients to explore themselves and their needs. This allows me to support clients in increasing their self-awareness, identifying and navigating through obstacles toward their goals, and in graduating to the next level of who they want to be.
