College can be a great time to start exploring relationships and even making long-term bonds. However, the stresses of college life can challenge even the most loving of relationships. I assist couples to identify communication and intimacy issues that prevent them from connecting both physically and emotionally. There is no size fits all. Thus, I seek to collaborate with my clients to co-create a therapeutic experience that creates the trust necessary to do deeper work....
I believe in my sessions with my patients there should be compassion, no judgment, and a positive mental attitude where no matter how difficult a situation is by working together we can solve the issue. I have worked for over 10 years with individuals from different communities with mental health and substance addiction disorders. I enjoy using a Cognitive Behavioral Health model with my patients for their symptoms. I also try to work with my patients from a mind, body, spiritual and emotional p...

I believe that change is possible for anyone, especially for those seeking treatment. It is a strength to ask for help. And I believe that before entering treatment, clients are doing the best they can but, for lack of resources, find themselves missing out. A critical starting point in treatment is to listen, carefully, to a client’s story - what the client identifies as pressing concerns and what they hope to get out of treatment. From there, we begin the journey. My aim is to partner with ...
As a counselor, I base my approach on my academic knowledge, and real world experience. I attended therapy as a young adolescent due to a loud home environment and being bullied by my peers. I learnt that therapy is a place to further strengthen personal boundaries and ways for practice self expression. Everything that I teach my clients focuses on increasing trust in oneself. Trust yourself to be supported by your environment and to make the best decision in any given moment. Trust that wha...

My goal as a therapist is to find solutions that work for you on an individual basis.

Through various techniques and long-standing approaches, we’ll be able to figure out what behaviors and/or thoughts might be holding you back fro...
