As your therapist, I will guide you in a process of welcoming all the parts of yourself, even the ones that cause distress, so that you can liberate yourself from their hold on you. Our work together will acknowledge how systems of oppression impact mental health, while also discovering the spaces where you can enact your power and live out your values.
I utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Couples (EFT) therapies to help you better understand yourself and your relationships. As a clinician who identifies as bi-racial, I enjoy working with clients from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds.
You are not a problem to be solved. You are a person who is struggling and the journey through that struggle is one that no person can navigate alone. It is my deepest honor to walk through it with you.
