Sometimes, clients feel they are not enough and feel stuck to start therapy or make needed changes in their lives. I utilize a holistic and individualistic approach throughout the therapeutic process to accommodate each client’s unique experience, needs, and goals for therapy. I ensure that self-discovery and root causes guide their self identity to allow for self-growth while addressing limiting barriers. There is growth and desire to strive better for self, with decision making abilities and autonomy. A stronger therapeutic relationship is developed so they can move forward with ease. Clients feel heard and whole; this will support positive and self-motivation for desirable outcomes as clients experience change in their journey.

MORE THAN JUST MY WORK:
- Gardening brings out the best nurturer in you; it does that for me.
- I played soccer and volleyball, very athletic.
- I love cooking and inventing new recipes that bring me peace and health
