I tailor each therapeutic relationship to honor your unique culture, background, identity, and experiences. Rooted in person-centered and psychodynamic approaches, I work collaboratively to support your growth toward authenticity and fulfillment. My style is dynamic and adaptable, helping you explore what tools and ways of working feel most effective and empowering for you. I have experience in private practice and clinical hospital settings, supporting clients, couples, and families through depression, anxiety, relational difficulties, life transitions, and attentional challenges.
I am committed to advocating for client-centered systems and holding space for those who need to feel heard. I am continually shaped by collaboration with peers, mentors, and clients, deepening how I show up with empathy, curiosity, and care.
“Authenticity is a daily practice. Choosing authenticity means cultivating the courage to be imperfect.” - Brené Brown
