With an expansive career spanning 40 years in the human services professions, I have dedicated my life to the well-being and mental health of individuals from all walks of life. My foundational operating theory is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT), enriched by the profound insights of Eastern Philosophy. This unique blend of methodologies allows me to address the complexities of the human mind with both scientific rigor and philosophical depth.
My journey in this field has been marked by significant milestones that highlight my commitment and expertise. Notably, I traveled to New York City to offer my support and services to the survivors of the 9/11 tragedy, an experience that profoundly shaped my professional ethos and deepened my understanding of trauma and resilience.
In addition to my hands-on work, I have also been a fervent advocate for education and training in the field of mental health. I have had the honor of providing trainings for prestigious organizations such as the World Congress of the American Counseling Association and the National Alliance on Mental Illness. These opportunities have allowed me to share my knowledge and insights with a broader audience, contributing to the advancement of mental health practices worldwide.
Throughout my career, I have remained steadfast in my mission to foster healing, growth, and empowerment in the individuals I serve. My approach is holistic, compassionate, and informed by decades of experience and continuous learning. I am deeply committed to making a meaningful impact on the lives of those I work with, and I look forward to continuing this journey with unwavering dedication.
