clinical approach
Together, let us embark on a transformative journey as we delve into the profound question of "what happened to you?" I invite you to join me in exploring the intricate tapestry of your life, weaving together the threads that connect past experiences to present challenges. Through our collaborative efforts, we will navigate the depths of your story, unraveling the layers that hold you back and empowering you to forge a path towards healing and growth.
I am dedicated to working with children, adults, and families – offering guidance, information, and a nurturing environment for transformative change. Within my realm of expertise lies a deep understanding of early childhood trauma and attachment. Through specialized training and valuable experiences, I have honed my skills in this field to help guide you to uncover your inherent strengths and empower you to cultivate profound connections with your authentic self and those around you.
I am committed to providing a safe and compassionate space where you can explore your past, develop resilience, and discover your inner strengths. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face and work towards building healthier, happier lives.
about me
Doing therapy with me is like embarking on a delightful treasure hunt, where together we dive into the depths of your being. We uncover precious gems of self-awareness and rediscover the radiant spirit of your inner child, unveiling new insights and pathways to healing.
I became a therapist driven by an inherent passion for helping people, which resonates deeply with the literal translation of my first name, "Helper of Man Kind." My journey led me to specialize in working with young children and their parenting environments, allowing me to address intricate mental health challenges at their core.
During my time away from work, you can find me producing music in genres such as House, Hip-Hop/R&B, and Dance, where I find solace and inspiration. I geek out on comic books and anything related to superheroes, immersing myself in the rich narratives and boundless imagination they offer.
