Personal Mission Statement

"As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in crisis, trauma, and victimology, my mission is to be a compassionate and unwavering ally for individuals and families navigating the aftermath of trauma and crisis. I am committed to creating a safe and empathetic space where healing can flourish, and resilience can be rediscovered.

My purpose is to provide expert therapeutic support that honors the unique experiences of each client, recognizing the profound impact that crisis and trauma can have on relationships and the family system. I strive to empower my clients by fostering self-awareness, resilience, and a sense of agency in the face of adversity.

In my practice, I am dedicated to staying abreast of the latest evidence-based approaches and therapeutic interventions specific to crisis, trauma, and victimology. I aim to be a lifelong learner, continually refining my skills to offer the most effective and culturally competent care.

I pledge to advocate tirelessly for the rights and well-being of victims, contributing to the broader conversation around trauma-informed care and social justice. I am committed to breaking down stigmas associated with seeking help after traumatic experiences and promoting a society where survivors are met with empathy, understanding, and validation.

Through collaboration with multidisciplinary professionals, community organizations, stakeholders, and policymakers, I aspire to contribute to the development and implementation of trauma-informed policies and practices. My goal is to create a ripple effect of healing and transformation that extends beyond the therapy room.

Ultimately, my mission is to be a beacon of hope and healing, guiding individuals and families through the darkest moments and helping them emerge with strength, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients on their journey to recovery, fostering growth, connection, and the restoration of a meaningful life after crisis and trauma."
