Great to meet you!

Are you feeling overwhelmed with life and uncertain of what's to come? Life brings uncertainties and many challenges that we are unprepared for.

I am here to support and challenge you to overcome any obstacle that you might be facing.

I provide an open and non-judgmental environment where you can feel compassion and understood. Through empathetic listening, evidenced-based techniques, and collaborative goal-setting, I can assist you in gaining insight, developing self-awareness, and building healthy coping strategies for your future. Together, we can work towards overcoming trauma, challenges, promoting personal growth, and ultimately achieving your future goals and peace.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am client centered.

I specialize in CBT, Trauma, HIV, Gender Health, and Women's Health.

What you can expect from our first session

I create a non judgmental and safe space for my clients to be open and vulnerable so they can reach their personal goals, whatever they may be. We will work together to achieve the best results.
