About

I work as a therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of experience. My journey into the helping professions started in 2005 when I began working as a certified nursing assistant and caregiver for clients with developmental disabilities and the elderly. For many years, I have been motivated to help and heal others. I believe that every person is a light in this world, and to heal psychologically from pain and suffering, we must discover our inner strength, inherent worth, and greater purpose. Everyone is subject to the same universal crises in life. Some of these include meeting our needs in a complex society, discovering who we are, understanding the meaning of our lives, and coping with changes in our health, relationships, and circumstances throughout our lifespan. When stress becomes overwhelming, and when we struggle to function, this is the time to reach out for help. My approach to helping people is influenced by positive psychology and solution-focused counseling. Understanding the nature and dynamics of suffering is essential. Still, I believe my most important task as a therapist is to collaborate with problem-solves and help clients find solutions to their goals.
