To me, therapy is a way to share stories. They're complex and nuanced, informed by the systems we exist within and the identities that make up the multitude of our whole. I have experience working with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, and disordered eating. We can work together in the therapeutic space to spend time exploring these stories and understanding how they impact your life and how to develop tools to make things feel more manageable. It is my goal to create a safe space free from judgment where we can explore, learn, and grow together.

I’m especially passionate about supporting Black and Latinx patients, and those exploring sexuality, gender identity, or non-traditional relationships.
I work with patients who are navigating identity, family, and emotional wellbeing. Many carry the weight of generational expectations, unspoken trauma, or cultural narratives that no longer reflect who they are. They may struggle with anxiety, low self-esteem, or relationship challenges rooted in family dynamics or inherited beliefs. They’re exploring identity or breaking cycles of emotional suppression, over-responsibility, or perfectionism. Together, we honor their roots while setting healthy boundaries, so they can speak their truth without guilt and build a life aligned with their authentic self.
