Currently accepting new clients! I believe that you are the expert of your own life, and it is my privilege to come alongside of you to witness and support your journey. Our work will be collaborative and unique to your specific needs and goals. My hope as a therapist is to create an environment where you feel safe to explore the dynamics in your world, heal, grow, and be fully yourself. I enjoy working with BIPOC clients and clients who are experiencing challenges around anxiety, identity development, life transitions, relationships, religious trauma, racial trauma, adoption, and parenting.
My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and grounded in an anti-racist, social justice framework. I draw from techniques based in attachment theory, strengths-based therapy, and somatic experiencing to support and empower you in finding healing, safety, and alignment in your life.
I would be so happy to come alongside you as you navigate life's challenges. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a free consult.
