Welcome! Does it feel like you’re struggling alone managing confusing feelings, persistent thoughts, and mental and physical exhaustion? Sometimes if feels like you’re up against the world with all the messages that often lead to depression, anxiety, and relational conflict and inequity. You’re doing the best you can as a person, friend, partner, parent, and employee. You might not feel seen or like you are the expert in your life. Yet you have the strength and skills to reclaim these messages, make them your own, and transform your life for the better. You are worthy and deserve the support you need to heal.
I specialize in a supportive strength-based, Solution Focused Therapy, approach that identifies how social, cultural, racial, and religiospiritual messages can support you towards your life goals. I actively explore the biopsychosociospiritual influences grounded in an inclusive, intersectional Feminist and Medical Family Therapy framework.
I believe in the importance of unconditional care and positive regard as well as the courage to explore difficult and painful experiences in a safe and validating environment. Everyone is deserving of connection, hope, engagement, and empowerment in one’s journey of healing as well as confidence in their influence on their relationships and larger world.
