Today you are taking a step on the path of growth and well-being. Feeling good about yourself and having a positive perspective on life is important for your mental and physical health. I am a licensed professional counselor and offer a variety of therapeutic skills to help you understand what you're feeling and learn positive ways to deal with life's challenges.

My strengths-based approach combines cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused techniques and holistic ways to treat your entire being including mind, body, and spirit. My approach also embraces a positive view of queer identities and relationships while addressing the negative influences that homophobia, transphobia, and heterosexism have on the lives of the LGBTQ community. I personally understand there can be complicated feelings towards your own sexuality/gender identity along with the struggles of being a queer person of color, and can help you navigate these adversities.

I treat people, not a diagnosis. Life stressors impact everyone differently. I provide virtual holistic consultation, counseling and therapy to individuals at all stages of life. Whether you have been in therapy in the past and have a medical diagnosis, or if you feel that you are in need of supportive guidance, please reach out. I provide a conscious space, Mindfully, to assist you in learning to cope with stressors, life changes and goals. I believe that regardless of a medical diagnosis one can learn to live a life of deeper awareness, peace and balance. Before becoming a licensed professional counselor, I taught 4th grade.

Working with me will involve an equal partnership. Building therapeutic rapport is key early on, along with obtaining information about past treatment. I will meet you where you are and support you in getting where you want to be by highlighting the strengths you already possess. I enjoy working with motivated individuals who just need that extra push. We will work collaboratively to develop a comprehensive treatment plan that aligns with your hopes, dreams, and aspirations.
