I believe in facilitating patients’ understanding of themselves while using a strength based approach. My approach to therapy is naturally warm and compassionate. And I believe that inclusivity, cultural competency and patient’s empowerment are integral aspects of psychotherapy. My experience is in treating depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder and personality disorders, grief, acculturation issues, life transitions and identity development. In addition, specialize in working with patients who identify as transgender, gender fluid and LGBTQIA community.

In my practice, I believe the therapeutic relationship is sacred and created in partnership with each client to foster safety, compassion, patience and a sense of curiosity. Together we can create an environment to explore your personal challenges, emotions, imagination, limiting beliefs, trauma and any other issues that come forward to be worked through. When a person actively engages the world in a new way it can lead to greater awareness, self confidence, joy, peace and the ability to bring a more authentic, accurate centered sense of self into their relationships.
