About me
With 10-years as a social worker, I combine my unique therapy style, nature and a little humour as a way to help my client's create their own path to healing.
Paris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker considers herself a mental health normalizer. Paris possesses a deep passion for nature and the restoration of the human spirit through outdoor walk-talk therapy. She believes that taking therapy out of the traditional setting helps to create a more calmed experience. She primarily focuses on traditional issues including anxiety, depression, transition, trauma and cultural consciousness. Her therapeutic approach is person-centered and multicultural, drawing from Cognitive Behavior therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT), Holistic/Integrative, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT).
Paris utilizes her voice and platform to amplify advocacy for mental health and wellness in underserved and BIPOC communities. Paris is a strong advocate for access to quality therapy services regardless of barriers. Her mission is to increase access to therapy while challenging stigma, especially within under-resourced communities. I guide clients in reconnecting with nature and aim to promote generational mental wellness. Through her warm and inviting personality, she uses humor, empathy and active listening to help her clients create their own path to healing.
