Description
Greetings! I am a dynamic therapist dedicated to guiding teens (16+), adults, and couples towards healing and empowerment. With a clever and empathetic lens, I firmly believe in the power of fostering growth while honoring the unique cultural backgrounds of my clients. Through a colorful and culturally competent approach, I create a safe and inviting space where individuals and couples alike feel empowered to delve into their challenges and celebrate their strengths.
My specialization lies in supporting teens as they navigate the complexities of adolescence and adult women and men facing life's obstacles. I provide a nonjudgmental environment where clients can address anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, and generational trauma with confidence and authenticity.
Drawing from a humanistic approach, I value the richness of each client's cultural identity and tailor my therapeutic interventions accordingly. Through person-centered therapy, I foster deep connections built on empathy, understanding, and acceptance, empowering clients to chart their own paths towards healing.
In addition to my person-centered approach, I am trained in brainspotting, a technique that facilitates the processing and release of trauma. I also integrate holistic and somatic approaches, recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit in the healing process. Mindfulness-based interventions and somatic techniques are integral to my therapeutic work, helping clients develop self-awareness, emotional regulation, and resilience. I celebrate cultural diversity and incorporate clients' backgrounds into the therapeutic process to deepen connection and promote healing.
I am deeply passionate about working with couples at various stages of their relationship journey. Whether it's premarital couples, those who identify as LGBTQ+, polyamorous partners, or couples navigating the complexities of uncoupling, I am dedicated to providing support tailored to their unique needs.
With a focus on premarital counseling, I assist couples in establishing strong foundations for their relationships. This includes creating a safe space for open dialogue, guiding them through interactive exercises, and helping them explore their values, communication styles, and expectations. Through this process, couples develop a deeper understanding of each other, fostering mutual respect and strengthening their bond.
In addition to working with premarital couples, I welcome couples from diverse backgrounds and relationship structures. I am committed to creating an inclusive and affirming space where all couples feel validated and supported in their journey together.
Furthermore, I understand that relationships can evolve and change over time. For couples navigating the process of uncoupling, I provide compassionate guidance and support to help them navigate this transition with grace and understanding.
Whether you're embarking on a new chapter as a couple, exploring alternative relationship dynamics, or navigating the complexities of uncoupling, I am here to provide the support and guidance you need to navigate your relationship journey with confidence and clarity.
In addition to my clinical work, I am an engaging and educated speaker who facilitates wellness workshops for corporate and nonprofit companies. Through these workshops, I share my expertise on topics such as stress management, communication skills, and building resilience in the workplace.
With a strong commitment to social justice, I am actively anti-racist, advocating for equity and inclusivity in my practice and beyond. I create a supportive environment where clients from all backgrounds feel valued, respected, and empowered.
Whether you're an individual navigating life's challenges or a couple seeking to strengthen your relationship, I am here to support you on your journey towards healing and growth. Together, let's embrace your uniqueness, celebrate your strengths, and create a brighter future filled with possibility and connection.
