Get To Know Me
What does a first session with you look like?
I use evidence-based approaches in my practice to help clients accomplish their existential goals, with sensitivity to their ecological and multicultural contexts. Clients will leave the sessions feeling heard, supported, affirmed, and provided with a safe environment to explore the incongruence between their values and belief systems and their behaviors.

Work HistoryI am an empathetic listener who values trust, respect, empathy, warmth, and genuineness. These core values have been shown to foster insight, healing, change, and growth in clients. I take a culturally sensitive approach, recognizing and appreciating the diverse backgrounds of the populations I work with.
I am integrative in style and tailor each therapy session to the unique situations and needs of my clients. I apply the fundamental principles of the Person-centered humanistic orientation, Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with whatever techniques I use. Following the lead and informed consent of clients, I also integrate spirituality, faith, and religion into therapy.
