My aim is to create a supportive and open space to help you determine what you most want out of therapy and life. I utilize a psychodynamic, relational, and mindfulness based approach to assist clients in increasing awareness of the nuances of their inner worlds with curiosity and compassion. My style is warm, direct, and empowering. I am skilled in working with clients navigating life and body transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, self image concerns, loss and grief, relationship challenges, and identity exploration, among other areas.
With a background as a dancer and performance artist, I am drawn to working with artists and performers, as well as anyone seeking to understand and shift patterns they may feel stuck in — creatively or otherwise. Ultimately, I hope to facilitate a greater sense of freedom, peace, and fulfillment for my clients.
Working to avoid pathologizing and oppressive approaches, I prioritize a collaborative therapeutic space and seek to understand the psyche in relation to the larger environment within a multicultural perspective. I welcome people of all cultural backgrounds, sexual, and gender orientations.
