Great to meet you!

I work with clients through a social justice lens and work with them to find their strengths. I have years of working in the community with clients of various multi cultural backgrounds. I have experience working in schools, hospitals and at the college university level. I love learning new things about people and finding new and creative ways to work with people.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I like to explored with clients how culture and economics plays a factor into their lives and how family also affects them.

What you can expect from our first session

I feel that I am here to help guide and help clients process their current situation. I like to work with clients in a collaborative fashion, to help empower clients. I feel that therapy is finding ways to manage your personal issues and find solutions to everyday stressors. I feel that clients should be comfortable being who they are and like to help them advocate for themselves.
