As a therapist, I believe my first job is to witness. I aim to support a space that is safe enough for you to tell your own story, heal, and step further into your own power. I welcome open discussion of your identities, cultures, relationships, and experiences, including your experience of therapy itself, as it is happening. We’ll work to name how your experiences with structural oppression may have shaped your beliefs about yourself and how you cope. We’ll identify your strengths, and when it’s helpful, we’ll try out tools to support changes you may want to make.
I offer culturally responsive therapy for a range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, stress and trauma, life transitions, and coping with a medical diagnosis. I also offer therapeutic support for trans and gender expansive adults pursuing medical transition following the WPATH SoCs, and QTBIPOC affirming perinatal & reproductive mental health.
I’m trained in modern psychodynamic as well as several behavioral therapies and interventions (CBT, ACT, DBT, CPT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, problem solving). I hope to offer therapy that is flexible, approachable, and accessible. I honor the work you've already done by being here and look forward to your contact to see if we're a good fit.
