High satisfaction rate with clients

Nice to meet you

I believe a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship is the foundation for growth and healing. I work collaboratively with clients to deepen self-understanding, build on strengths and resilience, and create meaningful change. My approach is tailored to each individual and informed by cultural awareness, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and evidence-based Gottman Method frameworks for couples. With a background as a violinist, I value listening deeply and helping clients move toward greater empowerment, well-being, and fulfillment.
