About My Clients

I specialize in working with BIPOC individuals, couples, and family systems navigating trauma, identity shifts, and relational challenges. Many feel weighed down by "people pleasing", family expectations, or unresolved pain, and they want a safe space to finally put themselves first. I love working with clients who are ready to explore their stories, deepen their self awareness, and build healthier, more authentic connections with themselves and with others.

My Background and Approach

I am a Pre-Licensed Counselor specializing in women's issues, relational, trauma, identity, and life transitions. Whether you're working through generational wounds, struggling self doubt, or seeking clarity in your journey, I am here to walk alongside you. Using approaches like Emotional Focused Therapy, and Relational Therapy, I provide a culturally affirming, trauma-informed space where clients can release old patterns, and create lives that feel balanced.
