Healing is a Journey of Self-Discovery

I view the client-therapist relationship as a collaborative partnership where we work honestly and respectfully together to discover inner truths, cultivate growth, and inspire transformation. I operate from a person-centered, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive framework where the client is compassionately treated as a whole person, rather than just a diagnosis; acknowledging various aspects of their life experience such as race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and culture. I possess a very calm, warm, and trustworthy personality that helps one feel safe and at ease. I’m also a very attentive, empathic listener who gently helps clients identify their ‘stuck points’ and regulate their emotions via relaxation/mindfulness techniques. 


I believe that providing a safe and nonjudgmental space for clients is essential to the therapeutic relationship, and you can rest assured that I can be entrusted with your most painful stories. You are the expert of your own experience, therefore my role is to support you in recognizing and building upon your strengths as we collaboratively develop strategies to improve your life in meaningful ways. 


It takes courage to seek help and work through your problems, but with time and commitment, it can be the most rewarding thing you can do for yourself. 

As your therapist, I’m here to support you on your journey of healing and self-discovery.  


EMDR therapy with me:

EMDR is a unique and effective form of psychotherapy that helps individuals process and overcome traumatic experiences. It's like a healing balm for the mind, where the therapist guides you through a series of structured steps to untangle the knots of distressing memories and emotions. 


Check out this article for my "Simple Guide to EMDR".
