The decision to begin therapy is not simple and often comes at a particularly challenging time in your life. I know how difficult it can be to reach out during these times and my goal is to respond with curiosity, open-mindedness, and empathy. I believe that lasting change can come from exploring and ultimately freeing ourselves from the underlying causes of current symptoms. I want to work together with you to find ways to gain insight and relief. I work in an open and transparent manner, to help answer any questions or concerns you have along the way.
I work through a decolonial lens. This means that health should not be governed by an outside force or a normative expectation. We will work together to build an understanding of what health means for you, in a way that is formed by your culture, your experiences, your realities, and your hopes for yourself.
I work to create an affirming place for LGBTQ, kinky, and poly folks. If you are hoping to work with a mixed-race or BIPOC clinician, I would be a good fit. In general, I am passionate about creating a welcoming space for people who are new to therapy, and who might even be rightfully suspicious of the mental health system.
