My work as a therapist is grounded in the core values of human relationships, dignity and worth of the person, human and cultural diversity, social justice and advocacy, and community mental health. I offer goal oriented and person-centered therapy individualized to client's expressive nature. I work with clients who would like to challenge their growth and get to know themselves in order become a better version of who they are. I believe that each of us has a life path and holds the capacity to authentically contribute to our world in a unique & positive manner.
My experience in social work includes work in healing from trauma, violence, sexual abuse, oppression, grief, adjustment, & sense of self worth. Work has included prisoner reentry programs, family housing outreach, migrant education, school social work, refugee & immigrant support, after school programs, teaching English & Interpreting, & wholistic health.
Awareness, growth, learning, & inclusion are woven through my experience and chosen approach. I'm an artist. I sing, write & record music. I'm a dancer, & played competitive soccer. Combining skills, experience,& creativity, I've developed an approach that looks at the whole picture of a person's life, considering the impact of relationship norms & dynamics.

I use person centered, culturally adaptable, psychotherapy. With background in music and movement arts, I find it beneficial to incorporate music, breathwork,movement, and somatic awareness in treatment for some. Spiritual encouragement often becomes valuable when strengthening sense of self worth & sense of purpose. When wanting to change behavior patterns related to survival adaptations: EMDR.
