With a solid educational and practical background in psychology, my skills and experience reflect a nuanced understanding of human cognition and behavior and cultivate a deeper understanding of psychological concepts and their relevance in our lives. I am adept at building strong therapeutic alliances and fostering a safe environment for clients across age groups & situational needs, to explore their thoughts and emotions. As a queer-affirmative practitioner, my approach is client-centered and evidence-based, utilizing modalities such as rational emotive behavioral therapy (REBT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) (where necessary).
