I’m passionate about working with:
- professionals and graduate students who lack effective stress-management resources and work/life balance
- couples in crisis who feel disconnected, frustrated with communication deficits, and maybe questioning future commitment
- individuals wanting to improve confidence, self-worth, strained family or intimate relationship dynamics, address unprocessed or resurfacing trauma negatively impacting functioning
As people we are dynamic beings and can be and do multiple things. Using an integrative approach allows me to personalize treatment without limitation. While my therapeutic approach may differ based on the needs of the client, my personality is consistent and is a value-add to my approach.
Those who have worked with me, expressed appreciation for my warm Caribbean vibe, describing it as calm, authentic, and down-to-earth. I may laugh with you, cry with you, or challenge you when necessary. I feel this sets me apart from many other providers.
I know many people experience anxiety about starting therapy for various reasons. Think of the first session as an over-due conversation. We'll talk about what's brought you to therapy, how it's affecting you at home, work, in social settings etc., and more details along those lines. It's not uncommon for clients to report a feeling of relief after the first session because they've opened up about something they never shared for one reason or another.
