My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and strengths-based. I integrate evidence-based practices in psychology with an understanding of each client’s cultural and educational background, tailoring care to meet their unique needs.

The first session is about building trust. I take time to listen to your concerns, gather background information, and understand your goals. Together, we’ll create a plan that feels supportive, culturally responsive, and tailored to your needs.
