I am a neurodivergent affirming BIPOC therapist at The Depth Collective, a multicultural, sex-positive, LGBTQIA+, kink, polyamory, gender, and neurodiversity centered practice that addresses the trauma from systemic oppression and identity-based marginalization.

My therapeutic interests center neurodivergence/disability and their intersectionality with race, gender, and other identities. They also pull from my passion for performance psychology.

In a world where we are faced with various systemic harm, it is a beautiful thing to be able to take care of each other. I hope to cultivate a therapeutic foundation of trust and open communication so I may best support you through your healing journey. While healing can be challenging, you should never have to do it alone.
