Everyone feels lost at times and unsure what to do. I believe that reaching out for support creates an opportunity so that a new path can be discovered. I love people's stories and I see my role in the therapeutic relationship as a tremendous privilege. I strive to help you understand the behaviors and thought patterns that bring you to therapy and guide you in bringing harmony within your environment and empowerment within yourself.

I provide trauma informed care to those struggling with relational difficulties, anxiety, depression, C-PTSD, generational/intergenerational trauma, identity development, family of origin and attachment issues, racial trauma and historical trauma, systemic issues, and life transitions. I use a cultural perspective to explore and address the effects of racism, historical trauma, migration, and identity on one’s mental health and well-being. As a result, I am passionate about helping individuals who sit at the intersection of various marginalized identities on their mental health journey.

How often have you been told how responsible or mature you were as a child? Maybe you feel highly impacted by others' emotions or reactions. What's it like to consider that these things may have developed as a means to survive chaos and instability in life? We'll work together to embrace what we feel plague us. There's strength and power in all of these things. I work with clients healing from childhood trauma, those looking to improve their relationship with food & their bodies as well as clients living with intrusive thoughts, panic and obsessive thinking.

I work with youth, adolescents, and adults from all walks of life who are navigating a variety of experiences including but not limited to addiction recovery, harm reduction, neurodiversity, LGBTQIA2S+, ambiguous loss, femme-identifying experiences, creative burnout, religious trauma, historical trauma, trauma-informed care. During my time working with people in high stress environments, I’ve seen firsthand how fast chronic burnout can surface in a person’s life. I believe that learning to understand our thought patterns and behaviors can give us the tools to make meaning in our lives and revive ourselves from a burned out place.

If you’re from an environment that didn’t encourage talking about feelings, starting therapy is probably awkward and foreign to you. But there should be no shame or embarrassment about therapy. Many of us suffer from anxiety, depression, stressful life transitions, and relationship issues, etc., and could use a safe space to let out the stress and process the many things we have going on. With self-empowerment, exploring your identity & emotions, and identifying patterns of behavior and their triggers, I can help you prioritize yourself and in turn, find healthy ways to thrive in your personal, social, and professional life.

I work with diverse adult individuals experiencing life transitions, anxiety, and grief. I understand the importance of recognizing childhood relational or attachment trauma and its influence on mental health and well-being. Therefore, in my practice, I pay special attention to each client's life story. Additionally, I am especially interested in various types of adjustments, including adapting to new environments, navigating life transitions, and integrating into new cultures.

My interest is in working with children, adolescents, families, individuals of all ages, and couples. My primary interest is in helping families navigate significant changes and transitions in their lives. I believe that everyone in a family is interconnected, and changes in one member’s life inevitably affect the whole unit. This includes everything from coping with a sudden diagnosis—whether physical, mental, chronic, acute, etc.—within the family unit, to dealing with divorce or uncoupling, to sibling relationships and any other challenges that may disrupt and impact the family.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages from children to adolescents, and adults.

I am passionate about helping my clients thrive and embark on a path of personal growth. I enjoy working with adult clients who are ready to gain insight into their lives, behaviors, and patterns.

Life is constantly moving, changing, and evolving. Sometimes it feels like too much to take on alone. In a fast-paced world with many truths, I enable individuals to fully understand themselves in a warm, judgment-free environment. I work with young adults facing life transitions, relationship challenges, career stress, and quarter-life crisis. I also work with adults of all ages experiencing anxiety, depression, career uncertainty, grief, eating disorders, and health concerns.

Is life feeling overwhelming or heavy? Experiencing anxiety, depression, or the effects of past trauma in your life? I believe that therapy can be a place of hope and possibility, by providing a safe, and collaborative therapeutic environment to process and heal. My goal is to help clients learn to cope with life’s challenges in healthy ways, make healthy decisions, and to gain a better understanding of themselves. I believe that by taking a holistic and trauma-informed approach in therapy, the individual can be more self-aware and continue to create the life they want.

Life is beautiful but can also be filled with worry or doubt that disrupts the beauty. Our thoughts can throw us off balance and create a pattern difficult to overcome. I work with you to identify your needs and strengths to develop a healing path that provides therapeutic support and lifelong skills to overcome life’s challenges. As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand that just as everyone has a story to tell, everyone has a story to heal from.
