My Approach to Helping

My goal as a psychotherapist is to provide evidence-based interventions for individuals who are struggling and seek to make positive changes in their lives. I believe that every living being has inner strengths that provide them with the ability to be resilient, as well as flexible. However, stress and trauma can cause us to develop negative views of ourselves and the world; provoking a sense of hopelessness.

As a therapist, my hope is to encourage individuals to explore their emotions and utilize their inner strengths and resources to manage stressors or maladaptive behaviors. I believe that a therapeutic alliance is the most important factor in the healing process, therefore, my commitment is to help and support individuals by providing a safe environment where feelings and thoughts can be expressed freely, without judgment. My focus is to guide you in empowering yourself in order to improve your mental health, and ultimately, your overall well-being.

Why Going to Therapy Does Not Mean You are Weak or Flawed

I fundamentally believe that going to therapy is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength. It is not easy to admit that we need help or acknowledge that we need support. The fact that you have decided to seek support is an act of courage and self-compassion.
