Deconstruct Old Patterns. Heal Religious Trauma. Find Your Authentic Voice. Unprocessed trauma and oppressive systems (whether cultural, religious, or familial) can make it difficult to trust your own gut. If you are trying to "detangle" your life—whether that means leaving a high-control religion, exploring your gender identity, or breaking painful relationship patterns—I am here to help. I am a dynamic, multiculturally-minded therapist who advocates fiercely for my clients. I specialize in working with women and the LGBTQIA+ community, offering a safe container to explore everything from religious trauma to ethical non-monogamy.
My goal is to help you move from 'stuck' to empowered. Progress looks like shifts in language, setting boundaries with consequences, and growing confidence. I work best with clients who are tired of the status quo and are ready to show up for themselves to create real, lasting insights.
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain or justify who you are. Whether you’re deconstructing your past or exploring your identity, I’m here to hold that space. You don't have to carry it all alone. If you are ready to be seen, heard, and supported, reach out today for a free 15-minute consultation. Let's connect.
