Great to meet you!

I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health counseling field. I hold a Masters in Mental Health counseling with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy. I have worked with diverse populations from all social , economic, cultural, spiritual, and ethnic backgrounds. I specialize in treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, PTSD, stress management, and other life issues.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is to meet patients where they are at, explore their goals in therapy, and assist them in improving areas of their lives they want to improve in. I like to listen, understand, empathize , validate, build trust, rapport, and assist patients side by side to explore how they can improve their lives one day at a time.

What you can expect from our first session

I want my patients to grow , reflect, challenge, and gain insight after each session. I enjoy providing tools and interventions from the following approaches; solution based, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, ACT, and humanistic psychology .
