I offer a safe space in which you can be fully seen and valued for who you are, while developing new tools for navigating life’s challenges. My approach is trauma-informed, multicultural, and focuses on understanding you as a whole person. I offer a sex-positive, LGBTQ affirming, and strengths-based space. Through healing and self-exploration, we will implement skills together that can help you manage life stressors and improve your life, whether that is improving relationships, managing anxiety, overcoming trauma, building self-esteem, enhancing connection to life, help with feeling stuck, or making peace with tormenting thoughts.
I have extensive experience working with anxiety, panic disorder, trauma, relationship issues (including family of origin and narcissistic or antagonistic relationships), and improving sexual dynamics. I come to this specialization after having spent years as an attorney representing youth and families in the child welfare and juvenile justice systems.
You don't have to go through this alone. Your well-being matters, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. If you are interested in scheduling a session with me, please reach out to set up a 15-minute free introductory phone call.
