Great to meet you!

I'm so glad you've embarked on this journey! You are here for a reason and hopefully I can be of help to you along the way. I have clinical expertise in individual and couples counseling, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, assistance with addressing relationship issues and navigating challenging life circumstances. My main goal in working with clients is to provide an emotionally safe, culturally competent counseling environment. In all things, my main priority is to foster an environment of kindness, compassion and respect.

My approach to therapy

As a clinician, I take a person-centered approach to counseling, utilizing CBT interventions, with special emphasis on building rapport. Nurturing a healthy therapeutic relationship in which client's feel safe, heard and understood is paramount to me as I've found to be good foundation for success.

What you can expect from me

In the first session, clients can expect informal discussion about reasons for seeking therapy and working together to establish goals and expectations.
