Diving into the intricacies of the human mind during my undergraduate years, my focus settled on the connection between trauma and creative expression. This passion evolved, leading me to pursue a Master's Degree at University of Southern California. I've had the privilege of aiding individuals from diverse backgrounds in conquering challenges like depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, addiction, self-worth issues, and relationship discord. My clientele spans the spectrum, including fine artists, members of the entertainment industry, writers, and performers. What fuels my dedication is the belief that everyone has the capacity to overcome obstacles and fulfill their life's purpose. In our initial conversation, I'm confident my enthusiasm for helping individuals, fostering self-expression, and navigating life's hurdles will become apparent. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to meet with you, delve into your unique needs, and collaborate on solutions for your concerns.

Treatment Approach

  • Behavioral
  • Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
  • Person-Centered
  • Psychoanalytic
Approach Description: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used and effective form of psychotherapy that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is based on the premise that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, and changing negative thought patterns can lead to changes in emotional well-being and behavior. Although I use a multitude of interventions, I do enjoy using CBT in order to identify unhelpful thought processes and create a dynamic for clients to rewire those negative thought cycles. Mindfulness-Based Therapy draws inspiration from traditional mindfulness meditation practices and integrates them into therapeutic techniques to help individuals manage various mental health challenges. I enjoy using mindfulness-based therapy with a variety of issues including but not limited to anxiety, depression, self esteem, and trust. Embarking on the path of healing from trauma and PTSD is a courageous and transformative journey, and as a therapist specializing in trauma recovery, I am here to offer unwavering support. In the therapeutic space, we navigate the complex terrain of trauma, gently exploring the emotional aftermath and working towards resilience. Together, we address the impact on your daily life, relationships, and sense of self, using a trauma-informed approach rooted in empathy and understanding. My goal is to empower you with coping strategies, foster self-compassion, and guide you towards reclaiming a sense of safety and control. I am here to stand alongside you, providing a safe and nurturing space for your unique process of healing and growth. Your strength is already remarkable, and I am committed to supporting you every step of the way towards reclaiming a life of balance and well-being. Strength-Based Therapy focuses on identifying and building upon an individual's strengths, resources, and capacities rather than solely addressing weaknesses or problems. My goal is to empower you, fostering a positive and optimistic view of your abilities, resilience, and potential for growth.
