About

It is essential to me that my clients feel safe, understood, and heard. The modality of the sessions will be based on what the client is struggling with. Growing up in a society where mental health was viewed as a myth and people suffering from mental health issues were looked down upon for being different, I strive to make a difference. Most people have experienced some trauma in their lives, whether physical, emotional, or sexual abuse; I want my clients to feel safe and know that they will not be judged for their past experiences. Having been through a similar experience, I am empathetic and supportive, and I will help you heal from past trauma. There still is a stigma around therapy. Stereotypes about mental illness are significant contributors to the stigma that surrounds people seeking help. Whether you are seeking counseling yourself or have a loved one who is in sessions with a professional, it is important to avoid the temptation of putting a timeline on the process. Spending a longer period of time in therapy does not mean that you are worthy of less than any other person. Everyone’s life experiences and counseling journeys are simply different.
