The first time with a client is the start point for a relationship, is where the rapport starts to build and where I as therapist provide the first glance of non judgmental emotional support allowing the client to feel safe and secure to be able to be vulnerable and open up about the reasons for seeking therapy.

My therapeutic approach is humanistic, strength based, mindfulness oriented. I tailor every session to the client's needs.

Since been a young child I've always felt the need to help others, and growing up this need became stronger, and I found my personal path to be a helper, a support, a guide to others seeking to heal from all types of life wounds
