About My Clients

I provide trauma-informed and culturally sensitive care for teens, young adults, and adults. My ideal client understands that therapy is a collaborative process—they are the expert in their own life and are ready to take meaningful steps toward change.

My Background and Approach

I am committed to empowering my clients with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to thrive. With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I meet you where you are, recognizing that each journey is unique. I strive to create a therapeutic space that is inclusive, affirming, and tailored to your individual needs.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Through my personal struggles with mental health, I developed a visceral passion for helping and advocating for those also struggling with mental health, specifically in underserved and underrepresented communities. I believe in the saying, "What happened to you is not your fault, but healing is your responsibility" and I am here to offer support, guidance and celebrate you on that journey.
