You wake up and tell yourself today will be different. Maybe you’ll finally feel lighter, more focused, more “you.” But then the thoughts start crowding in before the coffee even brews—worries about work, the past, or that one conversation you keep replaying. You get through the day, mostly on autopilot, pretending it’s fine. Some days it is. Other days it isn’t. You can’t remember the last time you felt genuinely calm, like your brain wasn’t running a marathon without a finish line.

I use CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, Reality Therapy, and Supportive Therapy, among other treatment modalities.
I have always wanted to be a therapist. I was told not to pursue Psychology, because I would never be able to support myself. I was directly impacted by September 11, 2001. I decided that it was time for me to do what I wanted to do with my life.

There are many reasons why people seek counseling. The fact that you may be seeking counseling demonstrates your commitment to your mental and emotional health as well as your inner strength in identifying when seeking support is necessary. I believe everyone has the capacity to learn, change, and grow so that they may experience more meaningful, healthier, and happier lives.

I specialize in working with trans and nonbinary individuals navigating the layered impacts of complex trauma—particularly trauma rooted in relationships, identity invalidation, and systemic oppression. Many of my clients come to therapy carrying the weight of early attachment wounds, chronic misattunement, boundary violations, and experiences of erasure or violence, both within their personal lives and the world at large. Trauma doesn’t just live in the past—it lives in the nervous system, in relationships, in the way we move through the world.

I often weave in mindfulness practices to help you slow down, find clarity in the present moment, and reconnect with yourself.
I believe therapy should feel like a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be your whole, authentic self—messy, growing, uncertain and hopeful. We will work together, at your pace, focusing on what matters most to you. Whether you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking more balance, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Currently accepting clients
I approach therapy with a view that everything in our lives impacts our experience - such as our job, family, health, language, identities etc..
Sometimes it can be hard to identify why we feel a certain way, but with this in mind we can explore and heal from hurt that we have gotten used to.
I have been very intentional in approaching work that honors culture. We don't have to keep aguantando
