Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all experience. I meet you where you are and walk with you at your pace toward healing, growth, and lasting change.
I am passionate about empowering clients as they develop their sense of self. Too often, especially for LGBTQ+ and BIPOC folks, the world can feel like a place that demands silence instead of authenticity. I’m dedicated to changing that.
In our work together, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, validated, and supported. A space where vulnerability feels empowering, not intimidating. Using an approach that is affirming and trauma-informed, I specialize in helping clients navigate identity, anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship challenges. As a therapist of color, I’m deeply committed to honoring intersectionality and cultivating a culturally responsive space.
If my therapy approach sounds like the kind of support you’re looking for let’s connect and begin your journey together.
