About My Clients
I specialize in working with folks navigating race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, family stress and other aspects of identity, as well as the unique challenges that can arise from systemic inequalities and discrimination. My approach integrates evidence-based practices with empathy and respect. I honor the backgrounds and stories of each person I work with. The work we do together empowers you to explore your strengths, and recognize the impact of cultural and societal factors.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a culturally responsive therapist, I have an anti-oppressive framework and belief system, and this informs my practice. I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming space where individuals from many backgrounds of race, ethnicity, immigration status, and sexual and gender identity feel seen, heard, and respected. I believe that culture, identity, and lived experiences are central to who we are, and I approach therapy with an understanding of how these intersect with our beliefs about mental health.
