Are you a high performing athlete or professional? Are you struggling with the pressures that come along with being a high performer? As an athlete or other high-performing professional, you are not immune to the barriers of life that everyone else faces. You get stressed, feel enormous pressure--"Am I good enough?", feel anxious, overwhelmed & sad. Have you been afraid of asking for help because that might be seen as weakness? And, instead of asking for help, maybe you used alcohol or drugs to cope with the normal stressors of life but you are finding that substances have made things worse, not better. It's time for a change.

My goal is to support you with compassion, objective listening, supportive guidance, healing strategies, and hope. Many of us move through life carrying significant emotional burdens that hold us back from living a fuller life. Sometimes we feel stuck, hurt, overwhelmed, frustrated, angry, scared, devastated, confused, anxious, depressed, lonely, lost, etc. Sometimes we’re unaware of what we’re carrying and why, or the extent or ramifications of the weight. My role is to walk alongside you to bring those items into the light, and provide a safe space to examine and process them together.

Are you tired of feeling unmotivated, dissatisfied and stuck? Does your mind run at thousands miles per hour and you feel like you have no control? Do you feel confused in your own body and mind?

As a queer BIPOC individual, my passion is working with other individuals, relationships, and family systems of the queer (LGBTQIA+) 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? With some direction, non-judgement, and unconditional positive regard I believe people are capable of incredible things

I see a client as a caterpillar in a cocoon, searching to find themselves, growing within, wanting to break free, cracking the shell, spreading their wings, and taking flight into enlightment. It is an honor and privilege to be a part of my client's journey through the therapeutic process. When a client commit's themselves to being vulnerable and exploring new and heathier ways to function, they can experience transformation of self. Each person is a unique individual who possesses the ability to discover their true self that is capable of love, peace, and success.

Taking this first step in searching for a therapist or mental health evaluator could be stressful. My free initial phone consultation is available for you to ask me any questions you wish and ease your fears. During "virtual or in-person" meetings, I will help you understand your current/past issue, while guiding you in your road to healing. I also conduct Mental Health Evaluations for a variety of purposes, including custody cases, immigration, school, or personal reasons. If you're involved in a custody case, I can provide reunification therapy or court-appointed Child & Family Investigations/Parental Responsibilities Evaluations.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, feeling connected with yourself and others, and more? Does it affect your day-to-day life, your relationships, your work, and how you feel overall? Or you may feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, lost, and disconnected by the day to day life and demands. You may be asking yourself, "Is life supposed to feel this way?" The answer is no. Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues.
