Counseling Philosophy
I believe life is all about understanding self and finding meanings through our relationships with self and others. The power for change is within self and relationships with others, through genuine dialogue where allows you to truly understand your own unique experience through sharing, curiosity and learning. I appreciate the uniqueness of each story and experience that my clients share, so I take tremendous care and appreciation on this journey with my client. I believe the beauty of providing a safe space for the client, where they are able to truly in-touch with their own fear and uncertainty with me.
I work from a story telling framework focused on the formation of your experience that helps to enhance your awareness of its process. Through a collaborative relationship, we will construct new meaning to form new choices in life that was not accessible before based on your individual strengths, resilience and resources.
My highly tailored approach in psychotherapy allows you to understand any given event in a constructive way that is unique in your own experience. I will "walk" with you on this journey of understanding self within the context of your environment and culture, that leads to self-generating strategies to overcome struggles in life. I offer three clinical expertise, trauma-informed systemic approach, relationship, and cultural humanity.
