"Every Conversation Matters." Counselors facilitate healing through a process of genuine dialogue with their clients. In a world of challenges or going through a life transition can feel overwhelming. These challenges may bring about anxiety, hopelessness, and a sense of isolation, but you do not have to face them alone. Having a safe space to process everyday obstacles-whether from past or present challenges, and identifying solutions that works with a person that is nonjudgmental, and will help you to get to the root of the problem so you can begin to rebuild your life or your relationship is what makes all the difference.
As a culturally diverse and culturally sensitive family therapist/counselor, I am guided by three critical principles: awareness, positive regard and empathy. It is also important for me to show sincere respect and interest in the client/s reason for being at therapy, be friendly, show compassion and understanding, and remain calm during all situation
I have worked with clients ranging from at risk adolescents, and families, to young, and middle aged, adults, and couples. I am also a Certified Play Therapist that works with children with various behavioral, emotional, and/or mental health diagnosis. I provide therapeutic play in the office, or school setting.
