Get To Know Me
What was your path to becoming a therapist? What inspired you to choose this profession?
I have struggled with mental illness in the past and knows how detrimental it can be in taking away the beauty in life and making you feel like you've lost a sense of who you are. I was inspired to help others like me understand their potential and that there is more to life than their struggles.
In what ways have your personal experiences influenced your work with your clients?
My personal experiences have influenced my work with clients as I know how debilitating mental illness can be and how hopeless an individual can feel in times of distress. In my work with clients I use a holistic approach in addressing all factors/identities of an individual in order to reconnect them with the things and people that provide them joy.
