My approach I have an eclectic, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive therapeutic approach. I utilize different evidence-based practices such as Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy, just to mention a few. Treatment plans are tailored to each client, with the goal always focused on what matters most to the person in front of me. My focus My experience includes working with individuals facing various emotional and mental health concerns—from mood disorders such as anxiety and depression to difficulties adjusting to life changes and transitions such as separation and divorce, family conflict, co-parenting, medical diagnoses, grief and bereavement, and other life-altering experiences.

I consider it a unique privilege to accompany people on their journey to healing and improving their sense of well-being.
