About My Clients

I am passionate about supporting the Mental Health needs in BIPOC communities and marginalized populations as I can see the effect that structural oppression has on mental health and health outcomes. My allyship to diverse communities is essential to my work, and I value my connections with African American, LGBTQ+, and poly/Ethical non-monogamy communities.

My Background and Approach

I have a strong social justice lens, and have worked extensively with marginalized populations. I am skilled at supporting folks struggling with anxiety, life changes, and trauma. I have had the unique experience of identifying as Black being raised in a mostly White community (Washington State). It can be difficult to explain this experience to folks that have not lived it.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that each person comes with their own strengths. I work with my clients to understand who they are and support them to achieve their goals. I strive to have a non-judgmental approach to people’s experiences. I see the value and dignity in each person.
