Welcome

Welcome to my private counseling practice that provides comprehensive clinical services to individuals and couples addressing a wide area of mental health concerns.

I specialize in showing adults and couples how to maximize their psychological functioning and overall well-being. In the safety and support of a client-centered therapeutic relationship, I am dedicated to help you remove the obstacles that hinder your optimal functioning and overall mental health.

Working with the right professional, counseling will be one of the most rewarding journeys a person can encounter.

I welcome you to this wonderful journey.

My approach

My main approach to counseling is humanistic and it focuses on the difficulties and the paradoxes of your life rather than psychopathology. Within the safety of the therapeutic encounter, I believe that my role as a counselor is to help you reestablish your balance and regain your freedom from whatever might be keeping you from living fulfilling lives. I rely solely on empirically validated interventions to help you accomplish your goals.

I utilize the Wellness Model, in which the client-counselor encounter is comprehensive and it considers the contextual, multicultural, systemic, and societal factors that contribute to your distress as well as well-being. This model embodies and inside-out approach to mental health and strives to draw out your strengths so that you can make positive changes and live a more fulfilling life as opposed to attempting to alleviate a so-called mental disorder.
