I work to co-create a safe space with my clients that is uniquely built around the needs, desires, and experiences of each individual. I come to this work with the belief that systems of oppression impact our mental health, and my therapeutic approach is rooted in principles of anti-oppression, trauma informed care, and collective liberation. I prioritize working with BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ identifying folks. I am particularly excited to work with people as they explore the intersections of religion and queerness, navigate relationship dynamics, explore identity, process grief, work on boundaries, and embody their lives more fully.

The ideal client is an individual ready to make active change. Change is subjective and can be both big and small therefore, we start where you are and not where others think you should be. This is a collaborative approach in which you receive support and guidance towards the growth that you would like to see. I am fully invested in my clients and take the time to apply factors that can also hinder and promote success. My artistic background also allows me to be open to thinking outside the box when needed. I encourage you to think and explore both challenges and probable solutions as you continue in your therapeutic experience

I am a mental counselor licensed in two states: TX and WA. I believe everyone has their own defined resiliency.

I hope to help people find their strengths and support them in their unique needs.

As a neurodivergent person, my approach to therapy is grounded in a deep understanding of the unique and oftentimes disabling experiences associated with having a nontypical neurotype. Drawing from my personal journey, I help with clients who are navigating trauma or looking to foster a more compassionate connection with themselves. In my practice, I prioritize trauma-focused methods such as Internal Family Systems, Lifespan Integration, and psychedelic assisted therapy. These approaches aim to provide a holistic understanding of one's mind-body system and facilitate healing on multiple levels.

Are you a woman who feels overwhelmed, panicky or anxious?. Maybe you found this page because you are looking for answers and companionship on your journey with and through anxiety. I know, I’ve been there too. Anxiety can rob us of feeling safe, of our joy and connection, our vitality, and of our sense of well-being. It can leave us feeling exhausted and burnt out, unable to relax, sleep, eat well, and trust that everything is going to be okay. And as women, so much is asked of us from a culture that does little to support us, leaving us with no time to slow down, rest and care for ourselves.
