Empowering adolescents and adults from multi-cultural backgrounds using evidence-based interventions to overcome personal obstacles and improve well-being.

We aren’t meant to do life alone. Therapy is a unique process that can offer understanding, compassion, support, and challenge you. I believe that transformation and healing happen in the context of healthy relationships. Therapy can help you create the change you want in your life. Through this process you can learn skills and practices to develop resilience, boundaries, and work towards healing and overall wellness. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable space for you to come as you are, and to honor your needs by working towards your goals at your pace.

If you are dealing with relationship problems, depression, anxiety, past trauma or other life challenges, I invite you to give me a call. I have over 20 years experience counseling clients, and provide a safe and calm setting to foster healing and growth. I specialize in helping clients learn skills to be successful in their recovery.

How is your heart? What are you feeling these days? If you’d like to explore this and more, let’s talk. I am a licensed social worker who is person centered and trauma-informed. One of my primary goals is to help you grow awareness and control of thoughts, feelings, and actions that might prevent you from becoming your best self. I will help to create a safe, non-judgmental space that is culturally sensitive, collaborative and compassionate so we can grow and learn together to reach your therapeutic goals.

Whether you have been in counseling for years, or are reaching out for the first time, finding a counselor and starting therapy can be a daunting process. Dealing with grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, or any other stressors can compound the difficulty of this process. As a team, we can walk through whatever stressors are impacting you and find solutions that will guide you to where you want to be in your life.

Empowering and supporting individuals to discover their strengths and allow them to use those strengths to grow, to manage difficult issues and stressors in their lives in a manner that is authentic, genuine and fulfilling to each individual is my priority. Allowing for culture, worldviews, anxiety, fears and coping skills are what makes us unique and that is what makes therapy such a personal experience, it is a relationship that is tailored to you. Utilizing an integral approach that involves achieving self-worth, balance and wholeness backed by evidence-based research. This is your journey.

Let's work together to make your life better. My team at Umoja Behavioral Health and I work well with addictions, teens, sexual abuse, marriage/relationship problems and LGBTQ issues. We also work with those who are experiencing anxiety or fears about success, wish to improve coping and relationship skills, and to experience greater fulfillment in life. Culture, worldview, and knowledge of self represent the solution to problems as individuals--and as a society. I envision a world where everyone is authentic, engaged, and makes empowered choices rooted in passionate purpose.

My goal as well as that of my agency is to serve the underserved. With that being said if you have ever felt like you were not seen, heard, or understood, then you have come to the right place.

Together we'll work on achieving your goals in a non-judgemental setting.
