Mia is a bright and compassionate person with a strong passion for helping others. Her approach as a therapist is based in the belief that empathy can change lives. Her work as a therapist best aligns with the tenants of Humanistic Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Mia strongly believes in the roles of social justice, advocacy, and prevention in the field of counseling. She takes a multicultural lens to holistically view individuals in the context of their unique identity and circumstances. Mia primarily works with children, adolescents, and their family system, although she also enjoys working with individuals of all ages.
