I am a Mental Health Counselor providing psychotherapy for adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and identity-related stressors. My work is grounded in trauma-informed and culturally responsive care, with a particular focus on supporting individuals from marginalized and underserved communities.
In therapy, I aim to create a space where clients feel understood, respected, and empowered to explore their experiences. I often help clients identify patterns that contribute to distress, develop emotional awareness, and build practical coping strategies that support long-term well-being.
