About My Clients

I work well with adults (18-45 yrs) and older teens who are navigating complex trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges and neurodivergence! I have extensive experience supporting individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and people who are immigrants or children of immigrants. I enjoy supporting people as they re-build their self-esteem, motivation, confidence, and trust in their intuition.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Social Work Associate Independent Clinical (LSWAIC) with a Master’s in Social Work. I have four years of experience working at nonprofits supporting survivors of interpersonal violence and individuals experiencing houselessness. My therapeutic approach is rooted in unconditional empathy, compassion, and understanding. I also practice from a trauma-informed and culturally-empathetic lens. I approach therapy with unconditional compassion and understanding, curiosity, and authenticity, and I integrate various different skills and tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy in my practice.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Therapy should be a place where you feel unconditionally seen, supported, and empowered. Each person has their own idea of what a fulfilling life looks like for them- I believe in de-centering the therapist as the expert in your life. You are the expert, and I am honored to just be here to support and guide you through your journey. My approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and authenticity. The foundation of my work is trauma-informed, intersectional, centers cultural competence and empathy and is rooted in the idea that our liberations are all interconnected. I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself can be a strong driving force of change. As someone who is White, queer, neurodivergent, and a child of immigrants, I understand how important it is to acknowledge and honor the strengths that come from intersecting identities throughout the healing journey.
