For me, becoming a mental health professional wasn't just a career choice— it was a calling born out of empathy, understanding, and a genuine desire to make a positive difference in people's lives. I see each individual I work with not just as a client, but as a partner in their journey towards healing and triumph. My aim is to empower others to confront their challenges, rewrite their narratives, and emerge as victors in their own stories. Why did you become a mental health professional? As a 45-year-old CBT therapist who's spent significant time in the school system, I've witnessed firsthand the profound impact that early intervention and prevention can have on a person's mental well-being. Seeing young minds grappling with various challenges, I realized the critical importance of providing support and guidance at the earliest stages of development. However, my journey towards becoming a mental health professional isn't solely rooted in professional observations. Like many, I've faced my own share of struggles and hardships throughout life. From personal battles with anxiety and self-doubt to overcoming obstacles and adversities, I understand the profound impact these experiences can have on one's mental health and overall quality of life. It's this amalgamation of personal and professional experiences that fuels my passion for mental health advocacy and therapy. I've walked through the darkness and emerged stronger on the other side, and I am deeply committed to guiding others on their own paths toward resilience and victory.
