About me
As a therapist, my strengths are in meeting the clients where they are, fostering a strong therapeutic alliance, creating a safe and non-judgmental space, instilling hope, and increasing a sense of self-efficacy. I am an integrative counselor and believe therapy can make a meaningful difference because while we cannot change the facts of our past, it is important to gain insight into the stories we created; our beliefs, wishes, and fears; how this impacts our life; and what we want to carry forward.
I support patients and their families as a multicultural Associate Child Primary Clinical Therapist in a partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment center. If you're looking for support for your struggling child or adolescent and wonder whether traditional once a week outpatient therapy may not be enough, or you hope to avoid psychiatric hospitalization, please reach out to me.
