About My Clients
I have specific expertise with cultural, ethnic, and racial identity issues, relationship challenges, and conflict (siblings, couples, peers, families, polycules, etc). I specialize in working with emerging adults (18-40), especially BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, sex workers, kink/BDSM, interracial couples, poly/CNM, and ADHD. I have experience with populations dealing with complex trauma, abuse, complicated relationships, identity crisis, and cultural guilt/shame.
My Background and Approach
My approach is holistic, relational, and compassionate and meant to encourage you to dig deeper so you’ll know yourself better. I prioritize DBT, Somatic, Accelerated experiential-dynamic psychotherapy (AEDP), Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing modalities to tailor therapy to your individual needs and goals. We’ll focus on building skills in emotional regulation, mindfulness, body awareness, grounding, being present, processing uncomfortable emotions, externalization, and adapting to change. We’ll slow down and process your emotions, thoughts, and bodily sensations. In sessions, I can provide additional insight with my wellness credentials in nutritional therapy (NTP), chakra healing (CHP), and yoga trauma-informed therapy (YTIT). That may look like explaining how a certain chakra’s imbalanced energy can create negative feelings, how specific meditations or yoga poses can help relieve rooted trauma in the body, or how gut health is important for mental well-being.
