My goal is not just recovery, but helping individuals move from surviving to to thriving.
In addition to my clinical and research endeavors, I am passionate about promoting mental health awareness and resilience through educational initiatives. I had the honor of being a part of many healing journeys. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about watching someone’s silent strengths come to light. I have observed firsthand how people, no matter their age, can thrive when equipped with the right tools and support. It's my passion to help others discover and use their strengths to navigate life’s challenges.
My current memberships include those with the British Psychological Society and the International Developmental Paediatrics Association, among others. I am especially committed to culturally responsive care and building psychological resilience in communities. Whether you’re seeking therapy for the first time or returning to explore more deeply, I’m here to help you move from just surviving to meaningfully thriving. Let’s begin wherever you are.
