"We all feel stuck at some point in our journey. My core belief leads my professional work. I believe in human beings' ability in healing and becoming the ideal self. I helped my clients in the past by empowering them, and providing a safe environment where they become in touch with their own capabilities. My theoretical orientation gravitates towards strength-based modalities which views the client in charge of their lives. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. I tend to promote empowerment for my clients as I believe YOU are the only person in charge of your life and YOU can create the changes you desire, only by increasing your awareness and taking active participation in your journey. I am here to illuminate your path while you are consciously taking charge of your present and future".
