I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and family of origin issues. My particular passion lies in supporting minorities and mothers through all stages of motherhood, helping them find balance, strength, and peace in their unique journeys. I offer a therapeutic space built on empathy, compassion, and acceptance. I believe in providing an environment where my clients feel heard, valued, and understood! At the same time, I’m committed to helping you stay accountable, ask the hard questions, and work towards real, meaningful change!
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my approach is eclectic, drawing from a variety of modalities, with a particular focus on mindfulness and self-compassion to help you center yourself and manage life's challenges.
In our first few sessions, you can expect to build a strong therapeutic relationship, clarify your goals, and begin feeling lighter as you take steps toward your growth. If you're looking for a supportive, nonjudgmental space to work through life's challenges, I’m here to walk that path with you!

One size does not fit all when it comes to therapy, so I adjust my approach to meet your needs! Person-centered therapy is always at the core of my work. I also gravitate towards mindfulness (which teaches the art of being present in the moment and accepting things as they are) and ACT (which emphasizes self-compassion).
