I am passionate about people and advocating for the underdog. I enjoy a good fight for justice, equity and equality. Have you experienced abuse, rejection and discrimination? Is it a challenge for you to have difficult conversations? Anxiety eatin you up? Need someone to have your back? I got you! I can relate to marginalized people with real lived experience. I provide a space that is judgement free, compassionate, and honest where we co-create a path forward. I will be there walking alongside you every step of the way, in your corner, as we figure out this path together.
I believe in and practice cultural humility. Everyone is different, I humbly ask that you teach me YOU. IFS, Trauma Focused, Narrative, and Sensorimotor are all evidence based approaches I find to be effective with the diverse groups of people I see. Ultimately therapy works because we co-create a space and relationship that helps you thrive.
My therapeutic style is integrative, collaborative, and down to earth. If you have felt rejected, tired, and uncertain about the future and desire to feel hopeful, empowered, and clear about the way forward, lets connect and explore working together!
