Great to meet you!

I provide individual and family, and couple-based therapy to people from all socioeconomic backgrounds. I treat a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, stress-related disorders, social anxiety, grief, ADHD (teens/young adults only), and behavioral and emotional disorders (teens only) using therapy techniques and models such as Behavioral Therapy, CBT, TCBT, DBT, Family Systems, MI, Stages of Change, Strengths-based My main goal in this field is to provide people with the tools they need to advocate and make improvements for themselves . I enjoy assisting clients in identifying their goals by utilizing their strengths. I like to assist my clients in overcoming life challenges by motivating and encouraging them. I truly believe each individual deserve to be heard and valued.

My approach to therapy

I use CBT to help you navigate your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I also help you to connect each of them to navigate helpful patterns. With CBT you will learn to develop healthy coping skills for stress and mental health conditions such as Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, grieving, relationship problems, and help you improve your life challenges to live a healthier life.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, we will consult and discuss what brings you to therapy. We will also review the policy and the therapy process. It is important to me that I am a good match for you, and I can help you in order to proceed and start the clinical process. As your therapist, helping you make a list of your goals and what you want to achieve/work on is essential.
