Great to meet you!

I am a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in treating individuals suffering from low self esteem, anxiety or depression. Becoming a therapist was driven by me wanting to help people unpacked their emotional baggage and uncover new pathways. Over the years I have worked in various settings including hospital, outpatient and community based organizations.

My approach to therapy

I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust, empathy, and collaboration. I believe that every individual is unique and deserves a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to their specific needs and goals. I draw from various evidence-based therapeutic modalities, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and solution-focused therapy, to create a holistic and integrative approach to treatment.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to take away a deeper understanding of themselves and their emotions, as well as insight into their behaviors and thought patterns. They will learn coping skills and strategies to manage stress, anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges
