Throughout my career, I have remained committed to fostering growth, healing, and empowerment in individuals from all walks of life. My approach to counseling is rooted in the belief that every individual possesses the innate capacity for growth and self-understanding.

I recognize that each person's journey is unique, and I tailor my therapeutic interventions to meet the specific needs and goals of each individual I work with.

My journey to mental healthcare
In my personal life and throughout my career, I have had the privilege of witnessing the transformative power of therapy in the lives of countless individuals and families... Yes, I go to therapy too! My goal is not only to help clients overcome immediate struggles but also to equip them with the tools and insights they need to thrive in the long term. I am deeply passionate about my work as a counselor and consider it an honor to walk alongside my clients as they embark on their journey towards greater self-awareness, healing, and fulfillment.
My first session with you
Overall, the first therapy session is an opportunity for you and I to get to know each other, establish rapport, and begin the process of exploring and addressing your concerns. There will be a discussion on confidentiality and boundaries, assessment and goal setting, exploration of expectation and preferences, discussion of logistics and collaborative planning.
