Mental health struggles, counseling, and therapeutic relationships can be intimidating phrases. I used to believe that I didn’t need counseling, and that I could get through anything on my own. I have learned through guidance and experience that there is no need to trudge alone.
My primary goal as your counselor is to create the safe, nurturing environment needed in order to promote your healing and growth. I believe compassion, empathy, active listening, and an open mind will jumpstart the healing process. These are the characteristics I seek to carry from first impressions continuing throughout the counseling experience. I also put specific importance on building a judgment-free relationship with my clients, using mutual respect and care as cornerstones. Multiculturalism, equality, and becoming an agent for social change are central to my practice. I enjoy a systems approach when working with couples and families, outlining a clear path to healing and success. I encourage mindfulness techniques such as yoga, breathing, meditation, and doodling. Whether you want a mental health check-in, psychological tune-up, help with difficult transitions, or beginning a new exploration in your life, I will guide you through the next steps in your journey.
