How I Work With Students
I provide multi-cultural mental health care services for all students and specialize in working with underrepresented and underserved communities.
My personal philosophy in counseling is rooted in the belief that regardless of the emotional and functional challenges that one might be facing, each person can experience emotional freedom and reach their maximum potential in life.
These positive transformations can be achieved through access to an empathic and culturally humble counselor who helps students learn and practice mindfulness skills, implement resources and healthy coping strategies, interact with their emotions with openness and grace, and commit to aligning their thoughts and behaviors to their highest core values to achieve desired outcomes.
In my person-centered approach to therapy, I often use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients learn to accept and defuse difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action towards personal values. I also use EMDR to help clients heal emotional distress and symptoms caused by traumatic life experiences.
