Life transitions can shake the foundation of who we are—but they can also be the start of something more grounded and authentic. I help individuals rebuild that foundation by creating healthier habits, deepening self-awareness, and uncovering their strengths.
I work with people of color, ranging from ages of 18 and up, single or married, all gender(s), or religious backgrounds.

Many of us experience times in our life when difficulties arise in our close relationships or with life transitions, stirring feelings of anxiety, sadness, and fear. It can feel isolating and daunting to carry this burden alone, and hard to imagine that things will ever change. I understand that it takes courage to take the first step toward making positive changes in your life, and together, we will explore the difficult emotions and symptoms you are experiencing, gain clarity, and build awareness of old patterns and thought processes to develop new ways of living a more balanced and peaceful life.

I work in a collaborative relationship to help people change their lives to meet their needs. I assume that we are all much more human than otherwise, that we become human by being raised by people. I work with people to re-examine the history of their relationships and also their dreams.

Do you want to learn a new and healthier way of being in the world? Many people come to therapy because they are using old coping skills that helped them survive difficult experiences, but no longer serve them now that they are out of that situation. Instead of feeling shame about these anxious, fearful, or angry responses, I help patients accept those parts of themselves while also strengthening parts that seek love and growth. We’ll also explore how traumatic experiences don’t just happen at the interpersonal level, but often result from larger systems of oppression, which we can then internalize.
