My clinical practice is based in trauma-informed and individualized care. My approach to therapy is person-centered and community based. I believe in the importance of exploring how race, culture, gender identity and socio-economic status impact our mental health. It is my belief that quality clinical care looks at the individual from a holistic perspective. I engage individuals in a way that they not only feel heard but seen. My purpose is to create a safe and compassionate space where individuals feel motivated to explore their inner selves and maximize their full potential.
While I have extensive experience working with a broad range of issues, I specifically specialize in working with LGBTQ+IA community, individuals who are gender non-conforming, BIPOC communities, mood disorders, and women surviving with sexual trauma. I utilize psychodynamic therapy, CBT, Mindfulness Self-Compassion, and somatic awareness techniques.
I bring compassion, collaboration, and humor into our therapy sessions to create a safe space for healing. I am honored to accompany you on your journey towards self-discovery, and liberation. I welcome you to reach out via email, my website or phone to set up a free 15 minute consultation to see if my approach meets your needs.
