You're thoughtful, resilient, and had to work hard for what you have in your life. It didn't come easy, but you bridged the gap to where you are. Yet underneath, there are old hurts and patterns that weigh you down. Maybe it's anxiety or depression you can't shake. Maybe it's a voice that says you're not good enough. Maybe it's relationship patterns that keep you stuck. You don't have to carry it alone. I specialize in working with adults from Latino, Asian, African, and Caribbean descent — who are ready to heal, not just cope. LGBTQ+ individuals are welcome. I'll help you heal those old hurts and find the peace underneath it all.
Together we'll get curious about the parts of you that struggle with anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and relationships — and the old hurts underneath that drive them. The goal isn't just relief. It's reconnecting with who you actually are underneath all of that — so you can transform suffering and cultivate a peaceful, joyful, fulfilling life.
My style is warm, compassionate, direct, and skills-based. I don't just listen — I roll up my sleeves and get in the nitty gritty with you. You don't have to keep carrying it all alone. Whether you've never tried therapy or had experiences that didn't quite fit, I'm here to help. Book a free 45-minute consultation.

I work with people who carry old hurts that show up as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or self-doubt — people who worked hard to get where they are but can't break the patterns that keep them stuck. Using IFS and mindfulness, we go beyond coping — we get to the root. The goal: less anxiety, more confidence, healthier relationships, and freedom from what you've been carrying.
