I hold a psychodynamic and narrative approach to which I believe the client is the expert on their own experience. I believe in emphasizing client strengths and self esteem and I am heavily focused on building a safe environment that fosters collaboration with clients. I place a strong emphasis on a trauma and culturally informed approach that fosters both empathy and sympathy to better aid in enabling clients to feel seen in their experiences so that they can build a life they are eager to engage with.

In a world where so much uncertainty and injustice is possible, feelings of overwhelm can be a natural—and chronic—response. Experiencing overwhelm can often produce a state of inertia in us where we feel disconnected from ourselves, our relationships, and our hope. Utilizing an approach that emphasizes compassion, curiosity, and belonging, we will find ways to imaginatively move past mere survival and seek the answers that can be found in the darkness. Together, we will work to restore a sense of vitality and authenticity to life, cultivating the capacity to more fully live with both the joys and sorrows.

I enjoy working with adults navigating trauma, identity, relationships, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions, particularly those from Black, Brown, LGBTQIA+, and other marginalized communities. Many of my clients have spent years feeling misunderstood, carrying responsibilities that were never theirs, or wondering why life feels harder than it should. Together, we create a space where they don’t have to perform, explain, or shrink themselves. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their own agency, build healthier relationships, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

For the seekers, dreamers, and “misfits." Those who feel not enough, alone or like you are not able to be fully you and still be loved. Have you been told that the way you experience the world is "too much" or you are "too sensitive?" Maybe you feel like you have a breadth of awareness and understanding but don't experience the solace you are longing for. Or that you have had to hide parts of yourself to belong, only to feel more disconnected.
