About

In my professional capacity as a licensed social worker and psychotherapist, I have had the honor to accompany persons of all ages and backgrounds in their quest for insight and self-discovery. I believe that trust and vulnerability are at the core of the client-therapist relationship and that the client’s innate wisdom and judgment rule supreme. With that in mind, strategies and interventions in achieving clearly defined yet dynamic goals arise through a process of critical inquiry. In this process, I have witnessed individuals redefine and recreate who they are as they move toward greater lucidity and self-fulfillment. I serve to support the client as they learn to tap into their innate abilities to sort through their thoughts and emotions and create and incorporate viable solutions that reflect on self and its link to its multiple milieux. The client learns to simultaneously and effectively engage, adapt, and stay connected to their Ikigai, their reason for being.
