I am extremely passionate about empowering individuals and therapists/associates to heal and live their best, most authentic lives. I strongly believe that each and every individual, regardless of background, ability, or beliefs, should have a safe space where they can feel comfortable being their true self. I know that sitting across from someone with similar experiences can help to build trust and promote connection, and am therefore deeply committed to holding space for women and people of color. I prefer that interested parties visit my website to schedule a consultation or email me to inquire about my services.
I serve individuals, adults, older adults & teens/TAY (13-26yrs). My areas of interest include: life transitions, depression, anxiety, challenges with identity and self-esteem, chronic illness, coping with trauma & adverse experiences, relationships & intimacy, women's empowerment, cultural challenges, grief & loss, LGBTQIA+ issues and clinical supervision.
I deeply value the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist and pride myself on fostering a safe, judgement-free environment for all clients to share their truths. I would love the opportunity to work with and help you move away from that which is plaguing you; toward a life of healing and thriving. No couples or sliding fees at this time.
