It can be difficult to identify and make space for our needs for many reasons— competing obligations, the fast pace of life, or fear of rejection can get in the way. In these moments we often feel disconnected from people in our lives and from ourselves. I believe that personal exploration is essential to regaining connection, helping us attune to everything and everyone that give our lives meaning. To that end, I work collaboratively with clients to more deeply explore their sense of self and their distress, and I empower them to voice their needs and clarify the values, experiences, and relationships that matter most.

Hi! I believe healing starts in spaces where you feel safe, affirmed, and truly seen. My work is grounded in a person-centered, trauma-informed approach, which means I walk beside you with deep respect for your lived experience, your pace, and your resilience. I center a multicultural and anti-oppressive lens in therapy. Our identities—racial, cultural, gender, spiritual, and more—shape how we move through the world, and they deserve to be honored and held with care. To me, therapy is like sailing a boat: you’re the captain, and I’m here to help you get your lifejacket on and navigate the waves together, stormy or calm.
