Philosophy of Practice

In the profound words of Carl Jung, “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” This quote has stirred something deep within me, fueling my belief in the transformative power of self-awareness, acceptance, and autonomy. As you navigate the complexities of life, I am here to offer guidance and support, empowering you to uncover your true potential.

What Sets Me Apart?

I utilize a range of therapeutic approaches, including solutions-focused and narrative-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, client-centered therapy, narrative therapy, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), psychodynamic therapy, and a strength-based approach. My therapeutic focus centers on harnessing clients’ strengths to facilitate meaningful changes in their lives. I specialize in addressing a range of concerns including self-esteem, anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, relationship issues, life transitions (such as immigration or marriage), work/school-related stressors, family conflicts, and time-management challenges. By leveraging clients’ inherent strengths, I aim to support them in navigating these areas and achieving their desired outcomes.

I am passionate about the collaborative journey of therapy. Together, we will embark on an exploration of your emotions, thoughts, lived experiences, and address your challenges, transforming them into the pillars of your personal growth. We will work towards your goals, understanding your unique essence, strengths, pace, and journey. In my practice, there are no judgments—only acceptance, encouragement, and the freedom to explore the depths of your mind, body, and spirit.

Drawing upon my diverse cultural experiences and extensive training, I am committed to providing counseling services that are not just sensitive but transformative. This diversity fuels my dedication to offering culturally sensitive counseling services, ensuring that every aspect of your identity is respected and embraced.

Together, we will craft a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual journey. Beyond mere problem-solving, my aim is to empower you to embrace your full potential and live a life of fulfillment.
