Why did you become a healthcare provider?

I became a therapist because I feel it is a part of my purpose. After realizing how I could use my skills to help others, things began to click. My experience with my family taught me the importance of caring for our mental and emotional health.

Do you have hobbies or a way you like to spend your time away from work?

I love listening to others and giving space for them to share what is on their mind and heart. I also love helping, offering support, encouragement, and walking alongside others through the high and lows in life.

What do you enjoy or find most fulfilling about caring for patients?  

I love listening to others and giving space for them to share what is on their mind and heart. I also love helping, offering support, encouragement, and walking alongside others through the high and lows in life.
