Welcome. I'm a dedicated clinician with over 15 years of experience working with individuals, groups, and communities in a variety of clinical settings. My expertise includes adjustment/transitions, relationships, identity, anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, and grief. I intend to foster a therapeutic relationship that cultivates a safe space to explore the interrelation of thoughts, feelings, and actions, while actively working through challenges that inhibit the ability to thrive.
My approach is culturally responsive, trauma informed, and integrates strengths-based, human-centered, mindfulness-based, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy approaches. Collaboratively, we’ll promote self-compassion, self-care, empowerment, and resilience while taking the transformative journey toward growth and wellbeing.
I believe that every facet of one’s personhood matters. With compassion and openness, I will support you in exploring all facets of your identity while processing the challenges that affect your sense of self and state of being.
