My therapeutic approach is inspired by the belief that every individual has the innate ability to resolve their issues given guidance and support. I am collaborative and I encourage incorporating the client’s backgrounds, experiences, and preferences with evidenced-based practices. I believe in assisting clients to develop life skills that they can apply not just in the present, but in resolving future issues as well. My multicultural background allows me to have a more nuanced perspective in terms of the issues that confront people of color in all aspects of life which creates an environment of safety. I am a certified Imago therapist who has had great success in working with couples, and parents, and I also have specialized training in grief counseling, perinatal counseling, and women’s issues.
