The clients that I work with face complex issues and life-stressors that have multiple layers, inclusive to a history of trauma, grief and loss, challenges with mood and emotion management , sleep, or substance abuse, which affects their daily functioning, self-esteem, and their sense of self. The stressors are often related to challenges with managing their emotions or thoughts which can manifest as unmanaged anxiety, depression, insomnia, substance abuse, or PTSD. I meet my clients where they are at on their journey, by providing them with compassionate care, guidance, and patience, along their path toward healing and recovery.
I am a BIPOC therapist with 6 years of clinical experience working with individuals across the lifespan: adolescents, young adults, and older adults from diverse communities (i.e. BIPOC, GNC, LGBTQIA+). I utilize evidence-based practices and client-centered care to provide individual therapy and have specialized training for substance abuse counseling.
I create a safe and compassionate space for my clients which promotes a healing-environment centered empathic-understanding, growth, self-discovery, and loving-kindness. I can help you to change the narrative of your life-story, set the tone to the present moment, to help you achieve your goals, and move forward to the next chapter of your life.

I work with clients who may be struggling with trauma, complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, or emotional challenges. During our sessions, we will peel back the layers of your experiences as you feel ready. Healing and recovery can take time, but it is possible to do in a safe and caring environment. I often see that my clients notice treatment progress within the first 1-3 months of therapy.
