What's My Approach to Therapy?

I enjoy working with everybody. I have the training and the necessary life skills to work with a variety of individuals from all cultures and backgrounds, experiencing various life challenges and mental health conditions.

I work with adolescents, adults, and couples, helping them overcome depression, anxiety, relationship issues, adjustment to life transitions, blended families, and parenting issues. My ability to listen and to provide empathy comes from a genuine place of wanting to help others. My life’s purpose is to be a resource for individuals who may be experiencing challenges.

Life’s various challenges can be hard to face on your own. I would love to have the opportunity to help you face those challenges and to work together to help you become your authentic self.

My Practice & Services

My practice is grounded in a deep respect for the complexity of the human experience. I work with individuals navigating emotional pain, relational conflict, identity struggles, grief, and the often-overlooked existential questions that arise during major life transitions. Rather than reducing people to symptoms or diagnoses alone, I focus on understanding the full context of their lived experience — their history, relationships, values, and internal narratives.

I integrate evidence-based therapeutic approaches with a reflective, insight-oriented style that emphasizes emotional regulation, personal accountability, and meaningful self-exploration. Clients are supported in developing healthier coping strategies, improving communication, and gaining clarity around their internal conflicts, while also being encouraged to question rigid belief systems and inherited narratives that may no longer serve them.

My work often explores themes of loss, attachment, identity, and the search for meaning, helping clients move beyond survival mode and toward a more grounded, authentic way of living. Therapy is approached as a collaborative process — one that values curiosity, honesty, and psychological depth over quick fixes or surface-level change.

What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist

I love connecting with my clients and watching them progress over time. I love watching someone break free from the grip of anxiety and depression. I love watching people develop new interpersonal relationships while bringing back the importance and focus to their current relationships. I love watching people's perspective change from one filled with negativity to one filled with hope. I love seeing others find meaning and purpose in their lives.
