About

An ideal mental health client is someone who actively engages in their own healing and growth process, demonstrating several key characteristics: motivation for treatment, commitment to recovery, improving communication skills, developing self-awareness, resilience, growth and insight, and increased personal empowerment. I have experience treating anxiety, trauma, post traumatic stress, depression, grief/loss, relationship struggles, and emotional regulation.

A trauma-focused therapist combines specialized training, empathy, cultural competence, and a trauma-informed approach to help individuals heal from trauma and rebuild their lives. Other approaches utilized are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.

I understand that complete well-being involves overcoming obstacles and making changes that are difficult; however, with trust, practice, and dedication, any change is possible. I am devoted to destigmatizing mental health and expanding the reach of resources. My motto for therapy is “Once you know your ‘why’, your ‘how’ becomes more bearable.”
