You don't have to keep holding it all together on your own. As a licensed mental health counselor, I specialize in supporting BIPOC individuals navigating depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and struggles with people-pleasing. I provide a compassionate, culturally responsive space where you can explore your emotions, identify patterns, and develop the tools to foster self-acceptance and resilience. My approach is integrative and client-centered, combining cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
In our first session, we'll start by naming what brought you to therapy and what you're hoping is different six months from now. From there, we build a personalized roadmap together, not a generic template, moving at a pace that respects where you actually are, not where you think you "should" be.
I bring a deep understanding of the intersection between mental health and cultural identity. I know what it's like to navigate family expectations, societal pressure, and the gap between who you're expected to be and who you actually are. My work is about helping you live authentically, without needing to apologize for it.
