Great to meet you!

I prioritize creating a safe place where you can be yourself, be seen, be heard, and be understood. I am passionate about helping my clients work towards achieving the mastery of regulating their emotions and reducing the severity of their symptoms.

My approach to therapy

My approach to counseling is Cognitive Behavioral & Mindfulness Based. I practice unconditional positive regard towards my clients and seeing you reach a place where you are thriving, is an unspoken goal of our time spent working together.

What you can expect from me

Some of the highlights of working with me are deeper self - awareness, greater body awareness & acceptance, improved self - acceptance, higher levels of confidence, and the demonstrated ability to be assertive.
