The decision to become a therapist stems from my belief in the inherent potential of every individual. I am deeply committed to creating a therapeutic space where clients feel truly seen, heard, and valued. I believe that healing and personal growth are not just about wanting change but about equipping individuals with the knowledge, support, and tools they need to thrive. I also hold values of empathy, inclusivity, and equity close to my heart. I believe everyone, especially those from marginalized communities, deserves access to mental health support that is both compassionate and affirming. My goal is to empower individuals to uncover their strengths, navigate challenges, and foster lasting resilience. I am passionate about using evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and thrive in their daily lives. By building strong, trusting relationships with my clients, I strive to foster resilience and emotional growth. With a blend of academic training and hands-on experience, I am excited to continue my journey of making a meaningful impact in the lives of others.
