My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and compassionate space for you to re-connect with your whole self (body included!) as well as your strengths, and to process through emotions and experiences that feel challenging to face and sort through on your own. As a black mixed race person of color myself, my racial identity is a lens through which I see the work and how I show up in the therapeutic space. I have a special interest in processing through grief for those who have experienced loss of any kind. I utilize calm, reflective listening, somatic awareness, social justice and systems focus, and a strengths-based approach.

I specialize in working with bright, motivated clients who are professionally driven. I bring a social and racial justice lens to therapy, exploring the impact of immigration, ethnic & racial identity, and cultural issues that impact client's personal and professional lives. Life transitions, relationship challenges, experiences of loss, issues around acculturation, & family difficulties can lead to a sense of isolation and unrest. Whether these experiences happen in childhood or adulthood, their impact can be difficult to shake. They leave an influence on how we view ourselves, others, and our approach to new situations.

I am committed to using a healing-centered, trauma-informed lens and feel your journey of holistic transformation is unique and valuable.
