About My Clients

In my work, I support teens, college students, and adults who may be experiencing challenges with depression, anxiety, trauma related stressors, gender identity, self-esteem, relationship issues, stress management, communication deficits, intergenerational trauma, and discrimination. I use an integrative and collaborative approach in sessions by using strength-based, evidenced-based, and person-centered therapies.
