I am a psychotherapist working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation, and dissatisfaction in relationships. I help my clients explore how past trauma and experiences are impacting their current functioning and relationships and how they can create new relational patterns with themselves and others. My aim is to empower my clients to cultivate a healthy self-perception, foster stronger relationships, and develop the internal strength to uphold personal accountability and integrity.

- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) A short-term approach focused on improving relationships and social support. It is often used for depression and grief.
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
- Multicultural Therapy Acknowledges the role of culture, race, and identity in mental health. It values diversity and adapts treatment to each person’s background.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
- Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
- Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) Helps clients challenge and replace irrational beliefs. It is an action-oriented approach for lasting change.
- Reality Therapy / Choice Theory Focuses on present choices and taking responsibility for actions. It helps clients create more fulfilling relationships and lives.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: In therapy, we will work together to develop your self-understanding within a specific context while working towards your individualized therapeutic goals. Together, we will work to understand how past experiences, traumas, and relationships have impacted your worldview, relationships, and internal world. I take a non-directive, human-centered approach to working through the challenges clients bring into the therapy space. By utilizing an eclectic therapeutic style, I can draw on relational, human-centered, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approaches within your social and cultural context.
