With a focus on trauma recovery, family dynamics, and personal empowerment, he works closely with clients to explore their unique challenges and achieve lasting change.

Utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), to help clients overcome emotional hurdles, manage stress, and build resilience.
