The helping profession is more than a career for me; it is a lifelong calling. With over 13 years of experience, I have dedicated my practice to being a patient, attentive, and non-judgmental partner in my clients' journeys. My approach is rooted in the belief that every individual possesses the potential for growth and healing, even when faced with deep-seated "self-entanglement" or damaging beliefs. I thrive on making clients feel safe including those who may be reluctant to begin treatment. By facilitating a supportive and positive environment, I help clients learn to take personal responsibility and charge of their behaviors, empowering them to discover their true potential. Clinical Philosophy: I am a multicultural counselor who understands that both endogenous and exogenous factors (internal and environmental) significantly influence behavior. I meet my clients where they are, acknowledging these complex factors to foster authentic healing. I firmly believe that no single approach fits all. While I am primarily oriented toward Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I utilize eclectic modality tailored to the specific needs of the individual. For me, the therapeutic alliance—the relationship between therapist and client—is the greatest change agent in the room.
