Introduction

I am a warm, compassionate, skilled therapist with over 20 years of experience working with diverse clients. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and trauma. My passion lies in guiding clients to prioritize rest for their body, mind, and spirit—whether at home, work, or in relationships—by slowing down and cultivating self-awareness and self-compassion. In our sessions, clients can expect a collaborative and engaging therapeutic encounter. I encourage open dialogue and exploration of thoughts and feelings. I also introduce clients to practices that foster self-compassion and healing, tailored to address their unique challenges related to mental health, relationships, or life changes. At the heart of my approach is a deep commitment to cultural sensitivity and inclusivity. I ensure that each client's background and perspective are respected and honored. Together, we embark on a transformative journey, empowering clients to build resilience, gain clarity, and embrace their authentic selves while working toward lasting emotional well-being.
