Love Blossoms from Unexpected Beginnings
I met the love of my life in a unique situation. We attended the same class, but our first impression of each other was disastrous due to a small debate.
​
We attacked each other and couldn't find any common ground. However, as we continued to interact, I realized she wasn't as unreasonable as I first thought.
​
I started to observe her nurturing side, and after some time of repairing our friendship, I began to see that there was something more between us.
Love started to bloom in our relationship because I took the first step to approach her and adjust my perspective.
More About Me
I am the founder and principal counseling psychologist at Seeding Minds and an adjunct lecturer for psychology and counseling programs.
​
My experience includes working with youths with mental health needs in educational and psychiatric rehabilitation settings. I've also provided clinical counseling and group therapy for patients with schizophrenia, depression, and anxiety disorders in hospitals and rehabilitation centers. I use various psychometric tools, including intelligence, personality, behavioral, and cognitive assessments, and my therapeutic approach includes SFBT, CTRT, Schema Therapy, EMDR, and Ericksonian Hypnosis.
​
I offer certification courses on personality and marital issues, using psychometric instruments for couples as a seminar director for Prepare/Enrich Accreditation and as a T-JTA trainer. In couples counseling, I utilize the Gottman Method and have completed Gottman Level 3 training. For team dynamics and conflict management, I use MBTI and DISC tools. Additionally, I conduct mental wellness talks in corporate, educational, and religious settings and serve as an associate consultant for various organizations.
