About My Clients

Are you a teen or adult looking for a mental health provider who will acknowledge your identity? Are you struggling with family dynamics or feeling like you need to fit in a culture? Do you feel like it's scary to talk to a therapist about your upbringing or identity because they just won't get it? Parents, are you feeling lost on how to support your child through navigating their identity? Do you just want someone to listen - and truly listen? let's talk!

My Background and Approach

I am a dedicated student on the path to becoming a licensed counselor, with hands-on experience in pediatric clinical and educational settings. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with children, young adults, and families in diverse & underserved communities. My background has equipped me with a deep understanding of how cultural factors intersect with mental health, allowing me to offer a more holistic and personalized approach to therapy.
