Throughout life there are many factors that influence and shape the unique person we become. As a therapist, I believe in the power of self-awareness and self-acceptance and I seek to assist you in the process of self-exploration and self-growth. I work from a multicultural, nonjudgmental, compassionate, and anti-oppressive lens to understand your needs from the context of your environment, personal relationships and upbringing. I value the importance of trust and empathy in a therapeutic relationship as I strive to create a safe space to share and discuss concerns.
My approach to therapy is client centered as I believe that the answers lie within each person and through creating an optimal environment and a strong bond, I attempt to help you find clarity and peace. Being able to be a part of your personal journey to healing is truly rewarding.
As humans we have the capacity to adapt and discover more meaning & joy in life as we encounter and overcome obstacles in our lives. To me, happiness is the process of solving problems and developing more adaptive ways of being. I am excited to help you achieve your wellness.
