Great to meet you!

We find ourselves in an era filled with uncertainty, where many individuals are grappling with heightened anxiety and depression. My purpose here is to genuinely listen to you and offer unwavering support. I am a strong LGBTQIA+ ally, dedicated to ensuring that my sessions provide a safe haven for all. With a deep understanding of diverse cultures and religions, I have worked extensively with individuals from various backgrounds, fostering an environment of cultural competence and respect.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is comprehensive, centered on individual strengths, and free from judgment. I adopt a creative and optimistic style, drawing from a diverse range of techniques and methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness practices, humor, art, music, literature, writing, guided imagery, and various other modalities to best support your unique journey towards well-being.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can anticipate a transformation in their lives, marked by increased empowerment, self-confidence, and a heightened understanding of their own identity. This journey will equip them with the tools and insights necessary to forge a path toward a more positive and fulfilling life.
