You are the expert of your life! Together, we'll explore ways to foster authentic connection, healing, and growth, where you will be empowered to make meaningful forward movement. We'll explore your experiences, identify strengths, heal trauma, increase emotional regulation, enhance self-efficacy and self-trust, and navigate new paths towards your desired future. After nearly 20 years in the arts, I determined that it was time to shift from one form of human expression to another—from creating art for people to feel and experience to creating space for people to feel and experience.

My approach is grounded in neuroscience and CBT, but I also draw from self-psychology to help you understand the "why" behind your feelings. As a Phase I Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) certified therapist, I look at how your past and stress history have shaped your nervous system today. Whether you’re navigating loneliness, grief, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, life transitions, or crisis, I’m here to help. I also have a background in Veterinary Social Work, supporting those moving through the heavy, often lonely journey of pet loss and grief.

It's a different day, but it's the same story. Do you identify with this feeling? Are you feeling caught in a continuous cycle with little to no change? If so, you're in the right place. Let's recognize how life can be vibrant, meaningful, and intentional. Let's identify the patterns, behaviors, actions, and ways we can become stuck in a story that may not be ours. In therapy, you can create positive habits and rituals to help manage stressors, heal trauma, and live intentionally with a daily practice of mental health wellness. I specialize in PTSD/Trauma, Racial Identity, Anxiety, family dynamics, spirituality, and grief.

If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or weighed down by past trauma, you don’t have to go through it alone.

You may long for relief, connection, and the hope that life can feel better. I believe healing is always possible. Therapy offers a safe, supportive space to explore your story, build coping tools, and discover your strengths so you can move toward peace, growth, and a renewed sense of possibility.

Your parts are not something to be “fixed,” they are coherent to your story and identities. They are how you survived and responded to trauma, internalized stigma, oppressive systems, and relational harm. However, you might feel frustrated with or dissociated from these parts. Maybe you find that they don't keep you as safe anymore, impact your relationships, or your ability to show up how you want to. By working together to understand how these strategies helped you, the conditions and systems they respond to, we can attune to your inherent wisdom and discover new ways forward that make sense for your life.

My clients can be anyone, but I tend to most work with people struggling with their identities, struggling with connection, and working through transitional stages in life.

Most importantly, my clients want to work towards a future they are excited to experience.

I believe therapy is advocacy. I want therapy to be a space where my clients can learn about themselves, rest, and when they are ready, advocate for changes that move them towards their best life. I find that those of us with numerous marginalized identities have already been advocating for ourselves our whole life. However, we shouldn’t have to do this alone. This is why I'm particularly interested in working with those of us who are at the intersection of numerous marginalized identities, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+ immigrants, South Asians, first- and second-generation immigrants, college students, LGBTQ+ young adults, and adults.
