Our human experience is to face ease and hardship throughout our lives, with the ebb and flow of anxiety and calm, depression and joy, grief and comfort. Sometimes we can feel stuck, in ourselves and in our relationships. It is through compassionate yet oftentimes difficult introspection that we better understand the essence of who we are. It is from this place of self-awareness that we are able to learn, grow, and practice intentional, purposeful, mindful ways of being with ourselves and with others.I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families, and use a systemic and integrative approach that is person-centered, tailored, holistic, and culturally sensitive. I believe in the power of mindfulness and prayer in healing, and have worked with clients on various issues: childhood trauma, substance abuse, premarital counseling, body dysmorphia, etc.Healing begins with you. My role as your therapist is to hold the therapy space with compassion and without judgement. I invite you to show up just as you are, unmasked, so that you can engage in authentic introspection to help create the change you are seeking and reach your greater potential.
