Great to meet you!

I am passionate to work with you! As a therapist, I am warm with a robust passion for helping individuals improve their interpersonal relationships and resolve conflicts. I bring a comprehensive set of skills including excellent communication, coping skills, and multicultural competence, which are complemented by my strengths in empathy and awareness. I am eager to bring in self love techniques in therapy, along with my ability to adapt effectively with diverse populations.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Offer support to understand the roots of your anxiety, depression, stress, dysregulation and behavior. We will work together to identify the underlining causes and beliefs to address your symptoms.

Together we will learn to empower yourself with new skills and tools. This is a great time of life to form positive habits that can help for the rest of your lives. Gaining more self-knowledge and self-awareness will help individuals to tap into things that are interfering and increase positivity.

What you can expect from our first session

Individuals will have reminders about how worthy they are, how valid their concerns and problems are, and feel assured that there are ways to resolve them.
