My Story...

From my desire to understand myself and others better, I became a Psychologist . Fourteen years later I am very experienced after working with clients in university, hospital and medical practice settings . I provide therapy in a non-judgmental , warm and friendly environment where you will feel heard and validated . That is as important as the  helpful strategies I will provide to help you with your issues.
