My communication style

In a busy world where overstimulation is slowly becoming the norm, my approach to therapy is focused on active listening. I believe therapy should be like a welcoming oasis, transmitting calmness and relaxation, where information can be processed in a tranquil environment, where it can be absorbed and successfully applied to possible solutions.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a young child, I was assigned the role of listener and problem solver for settling disputes between my siblings. Likewise, in high school, college, and adulthood, I usually volunteered for conflict resolution. For me, the glass is always half full, and I love to share hope and confidence with clients who have the courage to seek therapy.

My goals for you

Client-centered therapy is a natural conductor for helping clients set and reach beneficial treatment goals. During our sessions together, clients will intuitively discover immediate and long-term goals and highlight their overall treatment plans.

Our first session

Clients can leave the very first session with workable solutions because cognitive behavioral brief therapy is solution-based rather than problem-oriented. You might be unsure of how therapy can actually change your life, but I assure you that by taking the first step, you are already changing. I am grateful and excited for your determination.
