About My Clients
I work with BIPOC folks, men, athletes, and high performers who are holding too much for too long. My clients often navigate cultural pressure, trauma, burnout, and emotional shutdown. They're ready to stop performing and start healing. Whether you're leading, parenting, unlearning, or just tired of keeping it all together, I offer a space rooted in honesty, embodiment, and radical care—where you don’t have to shrink, translate, or go it alone.
My Background and Approach
I bring lived experience, clinical skill, and a deep belief that therapy is a radical act of liberation and community care. My approach blends Brainspotting, somatics, and identity-rooted work to help clients move from emotional shutdown to embodied healing. I center BIPOC clients, men, athletes, and high-performing folks navigating trauma, burnout, and cultural pressure. In session, I’m real, direct, and compassionate—I bring my full self so you can bring yours. Together, we’ll unpack what your body’s been holding, explore the impact of culture and history on your story, and build a relationship where healing can happen with honesty and ease. I also lead a men’s process group focused on emotional connection and relational repair. Therapy with me is honest, grounded, body-aware, and deeply human.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I’m a proud Black + Samoan woman, neurodivergent, and a former athlete who knows what it means to carry strength while craving softness. I live and practice on the stolen land of the Dakota and Anishinaabe peoples, and I honor their ongoing relationship to this land. As a daughter of Samoan ancestry, I hold deep reverence for ancestral knowledge, communal care, and the sacred connection between land, body, and spirit. In Samoan culture, we honor fa'afafine, our third gender which reminds me that identity has always been expansive, fluid, and sacred. My work is rooted in collective liberation, I support movements for Black lives, Indigenous sovereignty, queer and trans freedom, and healing justice. I offer therapy as a radical space where BIPOC, men, and high performers can lay down what they’ve carried and heal in ways that feel real, embodied, and culturally rooted.
