Let's Connect (213) 205-0964

Welcome to a space where the intersections of race, sexuality, class and other identities are understood, respected, and celebrated. Striving to be the most authentic version of yourself isn't always the easiest. Maintaining your peace, living unapologetically, setting boundaries, processing your emotions, owning your truths and overcoming one obstacle after another can all sound like easy tasks, but we’ve all struggled with them. I’m here to invite you onto a transformative journey of discovering and recognizing your capability to create the life you know that you deserve. The time for radical change and healing is always now.
I specialize in LGBT affirmative therapy, which helps me to better understand difference, the need for acceptance, and oppression. I recognize the challenges of having multiple marginalized identities and how that plays out in our daily lives. I am committed to working as a team and helping you to find value in your identity and lived experience.
The path to transformation can be scary but I am here to assist in your journey. I hope to engage you in an honest and very real way. Your change and healing is important to me and I hope to learn more about you. I am available for consultation via Zoom, Facetime, or In-Person. Give me a call or send an email to see if we might be a good fit for eachother.
