Experience

As an Associate Holistic Psychotherapist and Art Psychotherapist at The Center for Family Well-Being, I work with children, adolescents, and families facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, trauma, emotional dysregulation, and identity development. With over 12 years of clinical experience, I have served both local and international communities, providing individual and group therapy in school-based settings, community organizations, and humanitarian contexts. My work centers on helping young people and their families navigate emotional and behavioral challenges, fostering resilience through creative, trauma-informed approaches.

Therapeutic  Focus

I specialize in using creative and integrative methods such as art therapy, play, and mindfulness to help children and adolescents express emotions and build emotional strength. I tailor my approach to each client’s unique abilities, helping them not only develop coping skills, but also explore and process their deeper emotions. By addressing underlying issues, we work together to foster long-term well-being and emotional resilience in a supportive and dynamic therapeutic environment.

Philosophy 

I believe that every young person possesses an innate strength that can be revealed through empathy, creativity, and meaningful connection. My therapeutic approach is rooted in psychodynamic principles, with a focus on empowering clients through strength-based, culturally sensitive interventions. Whether working individually or in groups, my goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where children and adolescents feel seen, heard, and supported as they develop the tools to approach life’s challenges with confidence and self-compassion.
