I work to build trust so you feel safe reaching outside your comfort zone for growth and healing. I challenge clients in a supportive, encouraging way that promotes personal growth without being overly critical of your knowledge and experience. My focus I work with adults and children who have experienced trauma and traumatic loss. My clients are inspired to take ownership of their healing by engaging in activities that support personal growth and learning to thrive despite difficult experiences. My approach I use Client-Centered and Mindfulness-Based Counseling, along with CBT, ACT, and DBT, emphasizing self-esteem building. I treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and challenges with life transitions. My communication style We don't just get over traumatic events; we create space for them by learning to thrive despite them. I inspire you to become empowered through critical self-reflection that promotes growth, development, and the power to change your life through liberation and healing. My journey to mental healthcare I believe in supporting clients to become the best versions of themselves. I challenge you with goals geared towards building critical consciousness and promoting reflection that inspires ownership of your healing journey. My goals for you The trauma you've experienced is often no fault of your own; healing from it becomes part of your journey. I incorporate creativity, acknowledge your unique perspective, and meet you where you are in life. Our first session I'd like to start by learning about your experiences and how you've grown into the person you are today, what challenges you're currently facing, and what you've already overcome.
