My Story: Dedicated to Empowering Lives
My journey into social work was inspired by a profound desire to assist people in becoming the best versions of themselves in the face of adversity.
I’ve always had a deep-seated sense of empathy and a desire to help others navigate the complexities of life.
From a young age, I was drawn to people’s stories and the emotional landscapes that shaped them. Whether it was consoling a friend through a tough time or lending a compassionate ear to a family member, I realized I wanted to support those in need.
I’ve also faced a series of challenges that tested my resilience and mental well-being. During this difficult period, a therapist provided invaluable guidance and emotional support. This experience helped me overcome my obstacles and opened my eyes to the profound impact therapy can have on one’s life.
With my lifelong commitment to serve others, every day I’m reminded of the profound privilege it is to walk alongside clients as they navigate their unique paths.
My journey has been shaped by empathy, resilience, and an unshakable belief in the healing power of human connection. It is a story I am proud to share and a path I am honored to continue walking.
Who I Work With
With over 20 years of unwavering dedication, I’m a seasoned social worker who has dedicated my career to helping individuals and families achieve their full potential.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse populations, but I also have a passion for assisting individuals and families facing challenges related to chronic illness, physical disabilities, depression, anxiety, and the weight of societal oppression.
My Therapy Approach
Healing and transformation are highly achievable through the power of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). It is well-established that you can change your emotions and behaviors by reshaping your thoughts and beliefs.
Through self-awareness, self-compassion, and practical strategies, you can break free from harmful patterns and cultivate a healthier, more fulfilling life.
