You know those thoughts that say "I'm not worthy," or "I'm not good enough?" It is time to remember that you are a human first, and that you deserve to have space to feel safe in exploring the most authentic version of yourself and realize that is way more than "not good enough."

I'm glad that you have made the step towards taking care of yourself and seeking support from someone that can guide you through this journey of healing.

I strive to help my clients fully realize their sense of self, how to continue working on the self, and how to maintain it. I work (past and currently) in person with an extremely diverse range of clients; all over the spectrums of gender, sexuality, neurodiversity, race, culture, ethnicity. Our society can be extremely difficult to navigate and has a tendency to be highly isolating. I approach every client with a deep sense of empathy, openness, and understanding, without presuming to know exactly what each individual goes through. This is why I strongly prefer meeting clients in person, where I can build trust with my clients.

The majority of my work as a psychologist has been with children, teens, and young adults. I enjoy collaborating with youth on taking control of their mental health and becoming their ideal self by embracing their strengths and learning new skills. Whether it’s addressing mood issues, trauma, or assessing ADHD and/or ASD-related challenges, I offer a safe space that is conducive to transformation and a deeper understanding of the self.

When you, or your family are ready for change (or wish you were ready for change), I would like to provide psychotherapy assistance to you with compassion and motivation. Many clients seek me out due to my background with EMDR, trauma resolution, PTSD, couples counseling, personal growth, life transitions, 12 Step Recovery, anxiety, depression, parenting and relationship challenges. Trauma resolution is my greatest interest, and I am still amazed at how fragile/yet strong each of us are. I emphasize a whole person approach which includes: recommending support groups, spiritual growth, coping & restructuring feelings and thoughts.

Multicultural Therapists
What type of therapy is multicultural therapy?
Multicultural therapy is not tied to any specific therapy; rather, it is an overarching approach to therapy that aims to acknowledge and address the influence that factors like race, gender identity, and cultural background can have on someone’s life. Multicultural approaches can be applied to CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and others, and can be practiced with individuals, couples, families, or groups.
What can I expect from multicultural therapy?
Multicultural counseling should be tailored to the client’s unique identity and cultural needs. Such approaches often prioritize the building of trust so that the client feels comfortable exploring various aspects of their identity and any challenges caused by mismatches between their identity and the dominant culture. Beyond that, the format and timeline of therapy will be heavily influenced by the therapist’s preferred therapy approach and the specific problems for which the client sought therapy.
Can multicultural therapy help treat trauma?
Yes. Cultural factors such as racial background, gender identity and or sexuality, and immigration or refugee status can influence both whether someone experiences trauma and how they cope afterward. Multicultural approaches to trauma-informed care will be aware of these influences, helping the client recognize how their response to trauma may be shaped by their cultural background and identify coping mechanisms that take their identity into account.
What are the benefits of seeing a multicultural therapist?
Members of minority groups who seek therapy are sometimes frustrated by providers who don’t understand their cultural background or dismiss the ways in which race, gender, or other facets of their identity influence their lived experience. Seeing a multicultural therapist can help these clients feel seen, understood, and able to develop solutions to life challenges that take their upbringing, beliefs, and past experiences into account.
