Clinical Profile & Philosophy
I hold a Master's in Social Work (MSW) and am currently pursuing my Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) credential. My professional experience includes working with survivors of domestic violence and individuals with co-occurring disorders and substance use disorders. I utilize a range of holistic therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Psychoeducation, Psychodynamic Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Work, and Life Story Work with an emphasis on perception. My practice is deeply rooted in humanistic principles, believing that the therapeutic alliance should be a comfortable and safe space. I strive to provide adaptable and personalized therapy, avoiding a rigid, textbook approach. I am passionate about my work, driven by the belief that life is not a journey to be undertaken alone. Witnessing the transformation in my clients—seeing the light return to their eyes—is incredibly rewarding. My aim is to help individuals find consistency, organization, purpose, and passion in their lives, empowering them to romanticize life again and live with renewed enthusiasm and joy. I am dedicated to walking alongside my clients on their path to healing and self-discovery, providing the support and tools they need to create meaningful and lasting change.
