About

I am an accredited counseling psychologist, trainer, and certified trauma specialist with over two decades of experience in mental health. My approach is unconventional yet deeply holistic, integrating multiple therapeutic modalities to help individuals heal and grow. As an EMDR therapist and certified trauma specialist, I specialize in trauma recovery, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based modalities to support clients in overcoming emotional and psychological challenges. I believe in taking a holistic perspective, addressing not just mental health concerns but also personal growth, career development, and overall well-being. I have worked with individuals from diverse minority groups and nationalities, providing a guiding platform to nurture both personal and professional skills. My approach is tailored to your strengths and values, offering a step-by-step process that empowers you to move through challenges and reconnect with your best nature. I align with a client-centered, affirming, and integrative approach, ensuring that therapy is customized to meet your unique needs. Whether you're working through trauma, seeking career guidance, or building emotional resilience, I offer a compassionate and structured pathway for healing and transformation.
