I acknowledge the bravery it takes to step into a therapy session, whether in person or online, and commit to the process. That's why I'm deeply committed to integrating the personal and professional aspects of therapy, using humor and authenticity to foster a safe and empowering environment. I am deeply committed to continuously examining my biases, schemas, identities, and experiences to understand how these facets of my personhood create strengths and blind spots, and I value when clients are willing to share in that experience themselves.
As a client-centered, values-oriented therapist, I aim to create a warm, welcoming, and collaborative environment. I always do my best to lead with empathy, compassion, and curiosity in our space. I operate from an evidence-based, trauma-informed, and social justice-oriented approach, which often includes experiential, emotional, or behavioral interventions.
The therapist-client relationship is a unique space, one that is vulnerable, intimate, and personal; I strive to create a space where we can all honor and empower our lived experiences. I understand that seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I am here to support and validate your journey. I'm deeply committed to integrating the personal and professional
