I am trained as a therapist and as a social worker. Most recently, my area of focus has been brief therapy, which focuses on stabilizing a single issue in 5-12 sessions. Therapy can be overwhelming, and the first few sessions are sometimes spent identifying and prioritizing what to stabilize.

Best therapist I've encountered in my life. She is very helpful, understanding, and caring. She has given me many tools to manage my stressful life and break down big goals into smaller ones. I feel like I don't have enough words to extend my gratitude towards her. I'm still learning to not be so hard on myself and she always gives me a gentle reminder.
