It takes strength & courage to acknowledge personal shortcomings, painful experiences, & life stressors. I commend you for seeking professional help & I would be honored to be part of your journey of healing & self-improvement. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist, lesbian, & woman of color.
My professional training, personal identities & life experiences have enabled me to understand & help a variety of therapy clients. My therapeutic style is collaborative & non-judgmental. I strive to create a safe space where individuals can process life experiences, figure out who they are, what they value & develop healthier coping skills.
I have helped clients address struggles with anxiety, depression, self-injury, low self-esteem, lesbian/gay/bisexual & transgender identity issues, family relationship difficulties, religious traumas, & eating disorders / negative body image. My clinical specialties are LGBTQ issues and eating disorders. I provide transgender-affirming healthcare.
