Welcome to the start of recovery and road to healing! Together we can continue creating the life you seek, navigate the questions you have, find the answers you want, and move through your concerns to manifest the life you want to live. I specialize in helping people with OCD, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I also support folks with multicultural identities and anyone who wants to work on maintaining and building relationships. No topic is off the table but rather invited in for the discussion!
I seek to help individuals of all ages find their voice in a world where it can be difficult to feel heard. My therapeutic practice is aligned with a person-centered approach and a strong background in narrative therapy. I aim to create a safe space where we can unravel the worries, events, and traumas you have experienced or endured.
Therapy is a place where you can rebuild your narrative in a way that you want it to be written. Together, we can hold space for your pain and help you move through towards peace and clarity, and bravely allow a new you to form at your pace. I can’t wait to meet you and start your journey to self-discovery and the road to uncovering your truth.
