As a therapist, my focus is helping clients move from emotional stagnation to meaningful, lasting change. I provide trauma-informed, goal-oriented therapy that blends evidence-based practice with genuine human connection. Clients often describe sessions as honest, clarifying, and encouraging. A space where insight begins to turn into action.

My ideal client is someone who struggles with maintaining consistent positive thinking and managing daily stressors that affect mood stability. They may feel stuck in unhelpful cycles, coping with stress through avoidance or unhealthy outlets such as substances. These individuals are ready to regain control of their daily objectives, build emotional balance, and develop healthier strategies for navigating life’s challenges.

My clinical approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — with a focus on Trauma-Focused CBT — as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Collaborative Problem-Solving (CPS), and Relational-Cultural Therapy (RCT). I tailor interventions to each individual’s needs, using whichever framework best supports their growth, self-understanding, and resilience.

I believe therapy works best when it’s grounded in authenticity. In line with Relational-Cultural Therapy, I approach my work with openness and humility, recognizing that therapists are human beings engaged in growth alongside their clients. The therapeutic relationship is a space where both people can evolve through genuine connection and mutual respect.

I am a dedicated social worker with a proven track record of delivering compassionate care and implementing effective behavioral health initiatives. My background includes crisis intervention, strategic program development, and collaboration across interdisciplinary teams. I take pride in fostering authentic therapeutic relationships and guiding clients through sustainable change — even in high-stress or complex circumstances.

In every session, my goal is to meet you where you are, empower you with tools for resilience, and help you rediscover your capacity to thrive.
