I am a Licensed Professional Counselor providing somatic, trauma-informed therapy across the lifespan, supporting children, teens, adults, parents, families, seniors, and faith communities. I integrate Somatic Experiencing principles, attachment-based therapy, CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and culturally responsive care. I support trauma, divorce, custody, co-parenting, parenting, aging, and family transitions, with additional expertise in cultural identity, immigration, and diasporic experiences.
I help children, teens, adults, families, and seniors build practical skills for healing, regulation, and change. My somatic, trauma-informed approach supports trauma, anxiety, ADHD, parenting, grief, aging, divorce, custody and court-related family stress, cultural identity, and major life and family transitions.
Life transitions, family conflict, divorce, custody concerns, trauma, parenting, or the changes that come with aging can feel overwhelming. You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Together, we can make sense of what you’re experiencing, build practical tools, and find a path forward that feels right for you.
