My website
As a mental health worker and interdisciplinary artist, I am committed to empowering individuals and fostering emotional wellbeing through a holistic and trauma-informed approach. My practice is rooted in creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space that encourages self-discovery, honors lived experience, and supports the development of meaningful, sustainable routines. Trained in thought- and emotion-based modalities, I draw on evidence-informed practices that promote mindfulness, resilience, and positive transformation.
I am passionate about creating a space best suited for intentional shifts. With extensive experience supporting people through life’s transitions, I specialize in working along side emerging adults and adults navigating the complex terrain of school, career, identity, and personal growth.
Whether you're facing uncertainty, burnout, or seeking greater purpose and clarity, I offer a steady, affirming presence as we explore what matters most to you. At the heart of my work as a counselor, is a belief in the power of authentic connection, where healing becomes possible through presence, liberation, and the sacred act of being truly witnessed.
