Learn about my practice

As long as I can remember, I’ve had a passion to help others. My friends always came to me with their problems, and I was very blessed to be able to care for my loved ones when they were ill. I became fascinated with human behavior, motivations, thoughts, and emotions when I was a teenager and decided I wanted to work in the field of psychology. In college, I learned that many people’s issues stem from their childhood, so I decided to change my studies from psychology to education in order to be a teacher - a key part in children's lives - with hopes of helping them become healthy individuals.

It was not long before I saw that my students’ problems were becoming more complex and beyond my training. I was not sure how to help them. So, I returned to school to get the education and training required to be a therapist. The experience of being an educator has helped me be a better therapist in countless ways, mainly how we learn. And that's what therapy is all about…learning what the problem is and learning how to solve it.

Let's work together on your journey.
