You’re thoughtful and resilient, yet carrying the weight of anxiety, depression, identity questions, or relationship stress—often layered with microaggressions, burnout, or family/cultural pressures. I center your lived experience as a queer- and BIPOC-affirming therapist. Together we slow down, name what hurts, and reclaim strengths. We’ll build boundaries, heal trauma, and align choices with your values so you can feel safer in your body, clearer in your voice, and more connected in community.
I specialize in LGBTQ+ and BIPOC-affirming care: identity exploration, coming out, gender/sexuality, minority stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationships. My integrative approach blends relational therapy with CBT/ACT, mindfulness, somatic work, and parts work—always culturally responsive and collaborative.
You deserve care that meets you where you are. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where your full story—and context—are welcome. If you’re curious whether we’re a good fit, book a free consultation. We’ll talk about what’s hard, what you hope for, and the next step toward relief and steadier ground.
