We often find ourselves stuck in old patterns that no longer serve us. This can lead to feelings of restlessness, uncertainty, resentment, and loneliness. You may crave to feel seen and valued for all that you are. Perhaps you seek a sense of love and security. I am proud of you for taking the steps to heal. I view the therapeutic relationship as the foundation of healing. I hold a safe space by leading with curiosity, empathy, humor, and compassion. I will meet you with patience wherever you are on your journey and will not push you towards quick fixes. I work with teens and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, cultural challenges, relationships, and identity. I draw from person-centered and psychodynamic therapies, while incorporating other interventions when appropriate. As a QPOC therapist, I am passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ individuals and communities of color. My therapeutic work is rooted in a culturally affirming and trauma-informed lens. I aim to gently explore your story while equipping you with tools to access internal safety and empowerment. I will honor the unique individual you are by catering my approach to best fit your needs. Wherever you are on your journey, you do not have to face it alone.
