I specialize in assessing and treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD and Level 1 Autism. I am especially committed to supporting individuals from historically marginalized communities and those impacted by systemic oppression and identity-based harm. My work is grounded in a trauma-informed approach that centers your unique lived experiences. I understand how trauma—whether personal, systemic, or both—can impact mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. In our work together, we’ll explore the mind-body connection and its role in healing.
While I incorporate evidence-based approaches like EMDR and trauma-informed care, I believe that the foundation of effective therapy lies in the relationship between client and therapist. I focus on creating a space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and respected. Building trust, safety, and collaboration is essential to the healing process.
I meet with clients both In-person and online. I can also make schedule adjustments for evening appointments if needed.
