About My Clients

I work with teens, young adults, and especially girls and young women of color navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and identity challenges. Someone looking for a space where they can be real, feel heard, and maybe even laugh a little while doing the hard work. I’m especially passionate about supporting clients through life transitions, identity exploration, and the unique challenges that come with navigating today’s world.

My Background and Approach

My approach is person-centered and strength-based, grounded in the belief that every individual holds the capacity for growth and healing. I bring a deep commitment to social justice into the therapy space, recognizing that meaningful healing often requires challenging and dismantling the oppressive systems that impact our lives. In our work together, I aim to create a safe, affirming space where your voice is heard and your resilience is honored.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

At my core, I believe in the power of authentic connection, and I’m deeply committed to social justice, including racial equity, LGBTQ+ rights, and dismantling oppressive systems that impact mental health. I strive to create a space where clients—especially those who have felt unseen or misunderstood—can show up as their full selves and feel supported in doing the hard work of healing.
