About My Clients
You've done the hard work of surviving. Now you are ready to make sense of it all. You may be carrying grief, trauma, anxiety, or depression but know there's more to the story. I provide psychodynamic therapy to diverse individuals through which we uncover the hidden ways the past lives in the present. I integrate attachment-based, trauma-informed, and somatic theories to support actionable change. We take our time: slow, relational work built for long-lasting change.
My Background and Approach
The first step is getting to know you — your story, your history, the particular shape of what you're carrying. Together, we identify what is causing stress and what you already reach for to cope. This builds a relationship rooted in trust, curiosity, and care. Gradually, we explore the unconscious patterns, relational histories, and inherited wounds shaping how you move through the world today; how your anxiety, depression, or trauma may be entangled with family of origin, identity, or culture. Because depth work can unearth difficult material, I weave in body-centered tools grounded in somatic and trauma-informed frameworks to regulate and stabilize us in the process. I honor each client's subjectivity alongside the systems, histories, and cultural dynamics that underpin all of our experiences. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and hold space for the many ways ethnicity, immigration status, and class show up in the room.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Long-term depth therapy has long been inaccessible to many of us. People navigating systemic harm have historically been offered crisis intervention rather than the opportunity to understand themselves deeply. I think that is a loss for both individuals and for communities. Depth work offers something symptom management alone cannot: the possibility of meaning. In a world where nihilism is often around the corner, turning inward is a radical act. I am a Black woman of both African American and Afro-Latina heritage and I draw from lived experience in addition to my clinical training. I am deeply committed to serving the Black community and hold space with particular attunement for those navigating BIPOC, immigrant, and LGBTQIA+ identities.
