About

Working with the diverse population I have fostered a therapeutic relationship with my clients through the lens of Client-Centered approach through empathic listening, and providing a compassionate safe space to process the unresolved trauma, which became the essential predictor of their success. I believe in empowering my clients to discover their strengths through mirroring unconditional positive regard, allowing clients to explore their vulnerability to understand themselves better. I also aim to help clients access new perspectives that can help them improve their perception of themselves and their potential for achieving their future goals. I am skilled in inner-child therapy, stemming from (EFT) emotional-focused therapy and Internal Family System. I utilize CBT, psychodynamic and gestalt modalities, guided imagery, mindfulness, art therapy and works with grief, depression, anxiety, loss, shame, self-esteem issues, complex PTSD, childhood trauma, stress management, emotional dysregulation, self-empowerment, abandonment issues, and relationship struggles
