Being human is hard! Luckily, we don’t have to navigate it alone.

It shows a lot of strength to take the first step toward mental wellness. You may be feeling completely overwhelmed right now; stuck in a constant loop of anxiety, depression, or both. You may be feeling as if you’ve been trying to handle this alone for too long. Maybe you are seeking to gain a deeper understanding of yourself. Rest assured, you are not alone. These thoughts and feelings are perfectly normal and we all experience them to some degree as we journey through our lives. Let’s work together to clear a path for growth and move toward healing, one step at a time. You’ve already taken that first step on your own.

Does your relationship cause you more pain than joy? Do you feel misheard or misunderstood in conflicts with your partner? Do you feel blamed by your partner, even when you weren't at fault? These may be signs you are in an emotionally/verbally abusive relationship. Emotionally abusive relationships wear away our sense of who we are and leave us doubting our sanity. I can help you understand what is your responsibility in the relationship, and what is not, and help you to cope if you decide to stay, or to move forward and recover if you decide to leave.

The start of something new is filled with excitement, fear, hesitation, and a variety of other emotions that can influence whether we try again the next day. Therapy is no different. Whether it's beginning again, beginning anew, or simply beginning somewhere, the idea of therapy may stir up unfamiliar feelings. But when our emotions and relationships are a source of pain rather than support, we are left wondering if and how things can change. Seeing a therapist takes courage and you have taken the first step towards this change. My specialties include relationship counseling, boundaries, self esteem, grief, anxiety, & depression.

Schedule instantly through my website link in my bio! As a queer BIPOC individual, my passion is working with other individuals, relationships, and family systems of the queer and or BIPOC community. If you grew up in a culture that viewed mental health as taboo, you may be feeling alone and hopeless. Know that you are not alone in your journey. I believe that people and relationships can thrive if given the proper support, nourishment, and environment. We are all given the same tools, but how helpful can it be if we were never taught how to use them?

You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by trauma, anxiety, or patterns you can’t seem to break.

You want to feel lighter, more connected, and more at peace—but aren’t sure where to start. My clients often come to therapy ready for real change, even if they’re still figuring out what that looks like.

Navigating trauma, identity shifts or major life transitions can amplify feelings of shame and judgment, making it challenging to hear your own voice. But you deserve a space where you can be seen, heard, and supported. Together, we can explore these challenges and work toward healing, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. If you're feeling overwhelmed by fears rooted in past wounds or parts of yourself you've been taught to hide, you're not alone.

I know the idea of therapy can be scary, overwhelming, and even intimidating. I absolutely understand and acknowledge the feeling of awkwardness that some may have toward therapy. I am passionate about working with individuals who have concerns around stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, relationships, grief, and life transitions/work-life balance. Support may look different for each person, while some may want to focus on building coping strategies, others may seek a deeper healing process. One of our first steps will be building awareness of your needs, the change you want in your life, and identifying your goals.
