Welcome to my page! I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience working as a psychotherapist and two years of experience working as a certified life coach. I love what I do- helping others to achieve their goals by making meaningful changes in their lives. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, PTSD, stress, depression, low self-esteem, adjustment concerns, and career challenges.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, dignity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, mindfulness-based and culturally sensitive interventions. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to provide you with support, encouragement and important tools to transform your life.
I look forward to working with you!
